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.
Brazilian swimmer Laura Comini Romero has announced her commitment to join the Iowa State Cyclones for the fall of 2027, bringing top times to the roster.
From the beginning of the recruiting process, Iowa State stood out to me because of its welcoming environment, strong team culture, and the genuine connections I made along the way. I am grateful for the opportunity to continue my academic and swimming career as a Cyclone.
I would like to thank my family, coaches, teammates, and friends for their constant encouragement and support throughout this journey. I am also especially thankful to Coach Matt and Coach Mo for their guidance, belief in me, and all the time they invested in getting to know me.
Romero currently swims out of the Minas Tenis Clube in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. This year, she finished 9th at the prestigious José Finkel Trophy in both the 200 and 400 freestyle SCM, along with a 22nd place finish in the 100 freestyle. She improved upon her best time in the 200 freestyle at the competition, swimming a 1:59.50 in the SCM pool, translating to approximately a 1:47.65 in SCY according to SwimSwam’s Time Converter tool. Romero’s sister, Beatriz Comini Romero, is currently a junior at Iowa State after recently transferring from the University of Arkansas.
Best Times (SCM with SCY Conversions)
100 Freestyle – 56.99 (51.34) 200 Freestyle – 1:59.50 (1:47.65) 400 Freestyle – 4:09.80 (4:45.48/500 freestyle)Romero should be a huge pick-up for the re-emerging Iowa team as she looks to add depth in the mid-distance events that could reap rewards for the team. Using her converted best times, Romero would have been the fastest swimmer in Iowa State’s roster last season in the 200 freestyle and 500 freestyle by wide margins. Her converted time in the 100 freestyle also would have been the 2nd-fastest on Iowa’s roster in 2025-2026, proving her a huge asset for relays as well. This season the team has only competed in a handful of meets, yet her times in all three events would lead the roster.
Iowa State currently competes in the Big 12 Conference. The team finished 9th out of 10 teams at the 2026 Big 12 Championships, just 4 points shy of 8th place. Grace Swoboda currently leads the Iowa State team as a top threat nationally in the breaststroke events, coming off of a strong showing in the LCM season where she was a finalist at US Nationals. The Iowa State team also features a strong 2027 recruiting class that includes Romero, Annie Gilligan, Adriana Spelman, and Andi Clement.
