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.
Alondra Ortiz from Edmond, Oklahoma, has committed to swim and study at William Jewell College beginning in the 2025-26 school year.
“I loved the team dynamic and how well everyone trains and works together. As well as how the coaches support them every step of the way.”
Ortiz graduated from Epic Charter School this spring. She does her year-round swimming with Sooner Swim Club and specializes in butterfly and IM. During her senior year of high school, she updated her lifetime bests in the 50 back and 50/100/200 fly at the King Marlin Swim Club Pro-Am Classic and at the Oklahoma Senior State Championships.
She achieved a PB in the 100 meter fly (1:11.03) this summer at the Oklahoma Senior State Championships, which followed on last summer’s PBs in the 50/100 free and 200 fly.
Best SCY times:
- 200 fly – 2:18.93
- 100 fly – 1:02.73
- 50 fly – 29.00
- 200 back – 2:20.63
- 100 back – 1:04.55
- 50 free – 27.1
- 100 free – 58.06
- 400 IM – 5:12.51
- 200 IM – 2:27.05
Ortiz will join the Cardinals’ class of 2029 with Addison Williams and Mallorie Reed. William Jewell competes in Division II’s Great Lakes Valley Conference. The women’s team placed 7th out of 10 teams at the 2025 GLVC Championships.
