NEW COMMIT: The University of Connecticut has received a verbal commitment from Jack Gray. Gray is primarily a freestyler for the Westport/Weston YMCA. He is a senior at Trumball High School.

His top times are:

100 Fly 51.83
200 Free 1:40.48
500 Free 4:33.71
1000 Free 9:24.58
1650 Free 15:59.05

At the 2017 YMCA Nationals Gary earned points in the 200, 500, and 1000 freestyle, finishing in the top 16 in the 200 and the 1000. At the 2017 American Athletic Conference Championship Gray would have been a multiple event scorer. His top mile time would have finished ninth, just out touching the Huskies’ Anthony Dell’Isola. He’ll be a senior Gray’s freshman year. Gray’s 100 fly would have put him in the C final.

Gray told Swimming World,

“The moment I stepped on Campus, I knew that it was the place I wanted to spend the next four years. The team as a whole was very supportive of each other in and out of the pool which is exactly what I wanted. The academic supports that UConn offers is over the top, which will help me succeed as a student! Additionally, the direction that the program is heading towards under the guidance of Coach Chris, Coach Tim, and Coach Christa made me have an even bigger desire to commit to UConn. I am very excited to attend UConn to be apart of such an amazing up and coming program! Go Huskies!”
