Fitter and Faster Swim Camps is the proud sponsor of SwimSwam’s College Recruiting Channel and all commitment news. 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.
Sam Weaver from Cedar Falls, Iowa has announced his commitment to continue his academic and athletic careers at BYU beginning in fall 2026.
“I’m excited to announce my verbal commitment to Brigham Young University! Thank you to my coaches, teammates, my family, and my God, who have all helped me along the way. I’m looking forward to being a member of the team in 2026! GO COUGS!”
Weaver swims for Panther Aquatics Club and most notably finaled in the 100 breast at Winter Juniors West back in December. He swam a lifetime best 55.01 in prelims before finishing in 21st during finals with a 55.49. He also swam a 2:04.77 in the 200 breast and a 21.18 in the 50 free, tying his lifetime best. In February, he lowered his best time in the 100 breast once again, this time swimming a 54.18 for 2nd at the Iowa Swimming Short Course Championships.
He is currently in his senior year at Cedar Falls High School and was 2nd in the 100 breast with a 54.84 at the Iowa Boys High School State Championships. He also swam a lifetime best 20.71 in the 50 free.
Weaver’s Best SCY Times Are:
100 breast: 54.18 50 free: 20.71The BYU men finished 5th out of seven teams at the 2026 Big 12 Championships. Tanner Nelson scored 84 individual points including a win in the 400 IM with a 3:44.46.
Based on his best times, Weaver’s best time in the 100 breast would have made the Big 12 ‘B’ final. BYU had two ‘A’ finalists in the event with Peter Etzold 6th in a 52.58 and Will Bonnett 8th in a 53.09. It took a 20.13 in the 50 free to earn a 2nd swim. Etzold will be a junior this fall while Bonnett will enter his senior season so Weaver will have the chance to train alongside both men.
Weaver will arrive this fall as a member of the class of 2030 along with Gavin Willyerd, Grayden Barker, Jimmy Beeson, Blake Madsen, and Colin Eliason.
