Ohio’s Nora Fullenkamp has given her verbal commitment to the University of Kentucky, according to her Twitter account.

The sprinter earned bronze in the 50 and 100 freestyle at the 2016 OHSAA Swimming & Diving Division I State Championships last winter.

The Dayton Raider’s best events are the 50 (22.95), 100 (50.45), and 200 (1:52.28) freestyle. The 50 and 100 are Winter Juniors cuts.

At the 2016 SEC Championships Fullenkamp would have finished 20th in the 50 freestyle and been the Wildcats’ only finalist in the event. While her 100 would have just missed finals, it would have been faster than one swimmer on the 400 freestyle relay.

Just last season, the senior dropped four tenths in the 50 and nine tenths in the 100. If she continues on that trajectory, Fullenkamp could make an even larger impact when she arrives in Lexington next fall.
