She told Swimming World:
“I am thrilled to announce my verbal commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at the University of North Carolina. From the time that I stepped on campus, the team and coaches made me feel right at home. Thank you to my family, friends, teammates, and especially my coaches for their endless love and support. I can’t wait to be a tarheel!!! Go Heels!”

A current junior at Centennial High School, Singletary is a six-time Georgia 6A State Championship finalist. She earned silver in the 200/500 free combo as a junior after finishing first and third, respectively, in those events during her sophomore season. The USA Swimming Scholastic All-American also finished fourth in both of those events as a rookie.
