For many, swimming in college is a lifelong dream that is pursued with dedication and determination. Fitter and Faster is proud to honor these athletes and those who supported them on their journey.
West Virginia will welcome three international recruits for fall 2026. Diver Casey Spilchak will arrive from Canada, and swimmers Emre Zeytinoglu (Turkey) and Jin Rossi (Italy) are also set to join this fall.
The West Virginia men finished 7th out of seven teams at the 2025 Big 12 Championships. Danny Berlitz, who has since graduated, led the program with 56 individual points including a 3rd place finish in the 200 backstroke (1:41.20).
Spilchak will arrive from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. He competes for Saskatoon Diving Club. West Virginia’s diving program was led by Owen Recker at the 2025 Big 12 Championships as he finished 9th in the platform event, 10th in the 3 meter, and 12th in the 1 meter. Recker went on to dive at the 2025 NCAA Championships.
Zeytinoglu represents Turkey at the international level and was 3rd in the 400 free (3:56.92) and 5th in the 200 fly (2:02.23) at the May 2025 Turkish National Team Selection Meet. He went on to swim at 2025 European Juniors, swimming a 4:01.26 in the 400 free and a 2:03.51 in the 200 fly.
Zeytinoglu’s Best LCM Times (With SCY Conversions) Are:
200 fly: 2:00.59 (1:46.11) 400/500 free: 3:55.36 (4:23.70) 200 free: 1:52.13 (1:38.13)Zeytinoglu is a huge pick up for the Mountaineers as his best converted times in both the 200 fly and 500 free would have led the team both last season as well as this season.
Rossi represents Italy at the international level. Rossi competed for Leosport asd – Villafranc and most recently competed at the Trofeo Citta di Verona. There he posted a lifetime best 22.66 in the SCM 50 free to earn the win.
Rossi’s Best LCM Times (With SCY Conversions) Are:
50 free: 23.29 (20.26) 100 free: 50.31 (43.88) 200 free: 1:53.88 (1:39.71)Based on his best converted times, Rossi is a big addition to the sprint group. His converted 50 free would sit at #2 on the team this season while his converted 100 free time would lead the team this season.
Spilchak, Zeytinoglu, and Rossi will arrive this fall as members of the class of 2030 along with Jay Hickman, Dan Ginaitis, Rylan Sepulveda, Roman Torres, Carter Bradley, Kenneth McGlothen, and Owen Eisenhofer.
