NEW COMMIT: Auburn University has recently landed a big verbal commitment for the 2023-24 season and beyond from Olympic Trials qualifier Andrew Billitto of Seminole, Florida.

Regarding his commitment, he said:

“I am honored to announce my verbal commitment to continue my athletic and academic career at Auburn University!! As soon as I stepped on campus I felt immediately accepted by the coaches and team. I want to thank my coaches, family, teammates, friends, and especially God for getting me where I am today. This has been an amazing journey and I can’t wait to continue it at Auburn! WAR EAGLE!”

Billitto, who does his club swimming with West Florida Lightning Aquatics, won the 50m free and 200m IM at Florida Summer Seniors after racing the 100m back at Wave I of Olympic Trials this past summer. Last winter, he earned gold in the 100m back at Southern Zone Sectionals where he achieved six personal best times.

His best times include:

  • 100 fly – 47.55
  • 200 fly – 1:49.89
  • 50 back – 23.13
  • 100 back – 48.97
  • 200 back – 1:50.72
  • 50 free – 20.56
  • 100 free – 45.13
  • 200 free – 1:38.99
  • 200 IM – 1:50.93
  • 400 IM – 4:04.37

Currently a junior at Seminole High School, Billitto is a four-time Florida 3A State Championship finalist. He won the 50 free and was the runner-up in the 100 fly in 2021 after taking second in the 100 fly and third in the 100 back during his sophomore season.

He has also earned USA Swimming Scholastic All-American honors for his efforts in the classroom.

Billitto would’ve scored in the C-final of the 100 fly at the 2021 SEC Championships where Auburn finished 10th out of 12 teams.
