NEW COMMIT: Bentonville, Arkansas native and current high school junior Ryan Husband has announced his verbal commitment to Auburn as a member of the class of 2024.

Husband does his club swimming with Northwest Arkansas Aquatics and owns four Winter Junior time standards. He earned a trio of best times at Juniors West in December where his highest finish was a 13th-place showing in the 200 free before going on to win the 100 free and 100 fly at Arkansas Seniors. He finished 14th in the 50m fly at NCSAs last summer and was a six-time finalist at Columbia Speedo Sectionals last March. Husband is a multi-time Arkansas State champion while representing Bentonville High School, most recently setting new state records in the 100 free and 200 free during his junior season.

He told Swimming World:

“I am proud to announce my verbal commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at Auburn University! I would like to thank my family, coaches, teammates, and everybody that has helped me get to this point! #WDE”

His best times include:

  • 50 free – 20.84
  • 100 free – 44.98
  • 200 free – 1:38.15
  • 100 fly – 50.07

Although he’s not in scoring range just yet at the SEC Championships, Husband has continuously made improvements each season with 1.5 years of club swimming still to go before suiting up for the Tigers. He will add valuable sprint depth for Auburn, who recently finished eighth overall at their conference championship meet.
