NEW COMMIT: Woodberry Forest, Va. native Jack Stelter has announced his verbal commitment to the University of Tennessee and will suit up for the Vols as a member of the class of 2025.

He will join Jordan Crooks as well as current Carmel Swim Club teammates Gus Rothrock and Griffin Hadley in Knoxville in the fall of 2021.

Regarding his commitment, he said:

“After a lot of thought and consideration I am very excited to announce my commitment to swim at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville next year. I would like to thank my family, coaches, friends, and teammates for pushing me along the way. I would also like to thank the coaching staff at Towson University for being so understanding regarding my decision to take a gap year this year. I can’t wait for the next four years. Go Vols! ? #gbo”

A talented freestyler, Stelter swims year-round with Woodberry Forest Swimming and most recently won the 200/500 free combo at Virginia Seniors in March. Last summer, he achieved 100% best times at TYR Summer Seniors where his highest finish was a 25th-place showing in the 200m IM.

His best times include:

  • 50 free – 21.13
  • 100 free – 45.57
  • 200 free – 1:38.19
  • 500 free – 4:27.14

A recent graduate of Woodberry Forest School, Stelter is a four-time Virginia Independent Schools State Championship finalist. He won the 100 free and 200 free in 2020 while taking third in the 200 free and fifth in the 500 free during the 2019 season. He also led off the winning 4×100 free relay and anchored their 4×50 medley relay last year.

Stelter originally committed to Towson University but has decided to take a gap year and join the Vols next year. Under head coach Matt Kredich, the Vols finished sixth in the team standings at the 2020 SEC Championships.
