“I’m incredibly excited to announce my commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at Penn State University! Huge thank you to all the people who pushed me and believed in me. Lastly i’d like to thank my family, my teammates, Coach Hollie, Coach Schimmel, and my amazing coaches at both HS and Metro; Coach Kim, Coach Caroline, Coach Bren, and Coach Jon for making this all possible.”
Campos swims for Metroplex Aquatics and represents Chile at the international level. He finished his long course season at Summer Juniors where he was highlighted by an 11th place finish in the 200 breast swimming a 2:17.68, a lifetime best. At the start of October, Campos made his international debut for Chile and helped he boys 4×100 medley relay team to silver.
He began his senior year at Coppell High School this fall and looks to return to the state final of the 200 IM in February. This past February, he was 6th in a 1:51.42 and swam a lifetime best 1:50.79 in prelims. He has been a state qualifier in all three years of high school so far.
