Last winter, she recorded 100% best times at NCAP&#8217;s Tom Dolan Invite before going on to final in the 200 back at NCSAs.<\/p>\n<p>A current junior at Bishop O&#8217;Connell School, Hall is a four-time VISAA State Championship finalist. The USA Swimming Scholastic All-American was the 100 back runner-up and earned bronze in the 50 free as a sophomore while finishing third and second, respectively, in those events during her rookie season.<\/p>\n<p>She told <em>Swimming World:<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;I chose this school because for many reasons but I was most impressed with their beautiful campus and facilities and their unmatched resources for OSU student athletes. I was also impressed by how well I got along with the team. I love the relationship the teammates share with each other and the coaches. I look forward to furthering my athletic and academic careers at such an amazing school. I want to thank my amazing coaches and teammates at Machine Aquatics as well as my friends and family for all of their love and support.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Her best times include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>50 back &#8211; 26.48<\/li>\n<li>100 back &#8211; 55.14<\/li>\n<li>200 back &#8211; 1:58.96<\/li>\n<li>200 IM &#8211; 2:06.97<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hall will add valuable depth to the Buckeyes&#8217; backstroke training group when she arrives on campus as a member of the class of 2025. It took a 54.31\/1:58.80 to score in the 100\/200 back at the 2019 Big Ten Championships, but Hall has consistently made improvements each season and still has just under two years of club swimming still to go.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you have a commitment to share, please send a photo and quote via email to\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"mailto:hs@swimmingworld.com\"><em>hs@swimmingworld.com<\/em><\/a><em>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW COMMIT:\u00a0Vienna, Va. native\u00a0Paige Hall\u00a0has announced her verbal commitment to The Ohio State University and will join Gwen Woodbury with the Buckeyes in the fall of 2021.
