NEW COMMIT: The University of Las Vegas, Nevada has been handed their first verbal commitment for the 2022-23 season and beyond from Futures qualifier Averi Webb of Seattle, Wash.
She told Swimming World:
“I am so excited and grateful to be a part of UNLV’s swim team next season! I chose UNLV because of the rigor and emphasis applied to both athletics and academics. I had the wonderful opportunity to visit the campus and work with the coaches, and it was a great experience. I look forward to working closely with the coaches and and am excited to be a part of the this amazing program!”
Primarily a sprinter, Webb trains year-round with Seattle Metropolitan Aquatic Club and most recently finaled in the 50m free at Western Zone Seniors last month. She also picked up a best time at Four Corner Sectionals back in March.
Her best times include:
- 50 free – 24.28
- 100 free – 53.10
- 100 back – 57.65
- 200 free – 1.56.60
Also competing for Garfield High School, Webb placed seventh in the 100 free and eighth in the 50 free at the Washington 3A State Championships as a freshman.
Webb will add valuable depth both individually and on relays when she suits up for the Rebels as a member of the Class of 2026. In 2021, UNLV clinched their third WAC title as both the Rebel men’s and women’s team swept their respective league trophies.
