Quickly-Improving Victor Tremblay Will Stay In-State With 2020 Verbal to Texas Longhorns
NEW COMMIT: Kingwood, Texas native and current high school junior Victor Tremblay will remain in-state for his college career after verbally committing to the Longhorns as a member of the class of 2024.
Tremblay does his club swimming with Blue Tide Aquatics and owns three Winter Juniors time standards. He most recently competed at College Station Speedo Sectionals where he recorded four best times after racing three events at Juniors West in December. This past summer, he notched 100% lifetime bests at the NCSA LCM Championships.
Also competing for Kingwood High School, Tremblay is a four-time Texas UIL 6A State Championship finalist. He was the 200 free runner-up and took fifth in the 100 free as a junior after placing sixth and eighth, respectively, in those events during his sophomore season.
Regarding his commitment, he said:
“I’m super thrilled to announce my verbal commitment to study and swim at the University of Texas. I want to thank my family, friends, and my coaches for helping me to achieve this opportunity by inspiring me along the way. I’m very excited to be a part of a school with such a great athletic and academic program! Hook ‘em!”
His best times include:
- 50 free – 21.31
- 100 free – 45.35
- 200 free – 1:38.01
- 100 back – 50.77
- 200 IM – 1:54.07
Tremblay has made continuous improvements each season with well over a year left to go before arriving in Austin. Over the past two years, he has dropped one second in the 50 free, three in the 100 free, nine in the 200 free, seven in the 100 back and four in the 200 IM.
His club coach, Andy Korda, said:
“We are very excited that Victor has chosen a University of Texas to continue his swimming career. We know Coach Reese will get Victor bigger, stronger and faster and look forward to seeing where his swimming career will go over the next four years.”
