Michigan Scores 2028 Verbal From North Carolina Aquatic Club’s Yari Brock<\/strong><\/p>\n

NEW COMMIT:\u00a0<\/strong>Chapel Hill, N.C. native\u00a0Yari Brock\u00a0<\/strong>has announced her verbal commitment to the University of Michigan beginning in Fall 2028. Brock is a versatile Junior National qualifier.<\/p>\n

She will join\u00a0Elsa Anderson <\/strong><\/a>and\u00a0Feagin Kaminski<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>in Ann Arbor as a member of the Wolverines\u2019 Class of 2032.<\/p>\n

Regarding her commitment, she said:<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m incredibly honored and excited to announce my verbal commitment to continue my athletic and academic career at the University of Michigan. First, I\u2019d like to thank my parents, brother, all of my teammates on NCAC, and my coaches for their constant support. I wouldn\u2019t be where I am today without them. I\u2019d also like to give a special thank you to Coach Brown, Coach DeSelm, and Coach Watts for always believing in me and helping me become the person and swimmer that I am today. Finally, none of this would\u2019ve been possible without Coach Matt, Coach Priscilla, and the entire coaching staff at the University of Michigan. I am incredibly grateful for this amazing opportunity, and I cannot wait to be a Michigan Wolverine! GO BLUE!!”<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
