Regarding his commitment, he said:

“I am super thrilled to announce my commitment to swim and study at the University of Georgia! None of this could be possible without the help of my coaches, family, and friends. A special thank you to the University of Cincinnati for helping me out so much during these uncertain times! Go dawgs!”

Voloschin swims year-round with Dynamo Swim Club and most recently won the 100 breast at the Southern Premier Invitational after placing 17th in that event at Juniors East. He raced three events at the U.S. Open and recorded a trio of best times at Junior Nationals last long course season.

His best times include:

50 free – 20.45
100 free – 44.67
100 fly – 50.06
100 breast – 54.57
200 breast – 2:06.83

A recent graduate of North Springs High School, Voloschin is a three-time Georgia 4-5A State Championship finalist. The USA Swimming Scholastic All-American won the 100 free as a senior and placed eighth in the 100 breast during his sophomore season.

After originally committing to Cincinnati, Voloschin has decided to stay closer to home and will take a gap year.
