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.
Atlanta, Georgia’s Connor Christopherson has announced his verbal commitment to swim and study at Stanford University beginning in the 2027-28 school year. He wrote on social media:
“I am honored to announce my verbal commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at Stanford University. I appreciate everyone who helped me get here, including my family, friends, teammates, and coaches Caleb, Will, Mike, Zac, and Loughran. A big thank you to Coach Dan, Coach Mike, and the rest of the Stanford team for giving me this incredible opportunity. Go Card! ”
A top-tier sprint freestyler, Christopherson comes in as the #15 recruit on our Way Too Early list of top boys’ swimmers in the high school class of 2027. That gives the Cardinal, profiting wildly from the lack of budget restrains in the post-House world, their fourth top 20 –and sixth overall– swimmer for the men’s class of 2031. So far, they’ve collected verbal commitment from #2 Luke Vatev, #10 Owen Ekk, #15 Christopherson, #19 Yi Zheng, “HM” Jacob Bougaieff, and Soren Carlson.
Christopherson swims for Westminster School, where he is a junior, and SwimAtlanta. Beginning with Bill Behren’s Invitational and continuing through to the Best Of The South, he swam PBs numerous times over the course of the 2024-25 short-course season. In December, at Winter Juniors East, Christopherson notched lifetime bests in the 50 free (20.70), 100 free (44.39), 200 free (1:37.21), and 500 free (4:23.91). He lowered his 200 time in high school season at the GHSA 4A State Championships, where he won the 200/500 double with 1:36.45/4:27.11.
He ended the season with new times in the 50 free (20.11), 100 free (44.24), and 200 free (1:35.55) at Best of the Rest, finishing 2nd in the 200 and 3rd in the 50/100.
Christopherson had a stellar long-course season, culminating in all best times in the 50 free (23.50), 100 free (51.31), 200 free (1:50.31), 400 free (3:55.83), and 800 free (8:21.13) at Ocala Futures.
While we consider him mostly a sprinter, his strongest event is arguably the 200 (“the longest sprint”), which gives him the flexibility to further develop either up or down the range. Either way, he will be of value to Stanford’s relays and is already very close to scoring range at the conference level. It took 19.51/42.78/1:34.41/4:20.80 to get second swims in the freestyle events at 2025 ACC Championships.
