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.
Sectionals finalist and Futures qualifier Tara Talwar has sent her verbal commitment to the United States Air Force Academy for the fall of 2026.
“I chose the United States Air Force Academy because it offers incredible opportunities and the privilege of serving my country. I’m beyond thrilled to grow as a leader and athlete while training with an amazing team of swimmers and coaches!”
Talwar lives in Cary, North Carolina where she swims club for the TAC Titans. At the 2025 Speedo Sectionals in Cary, Talwar qualified for finals in the 100 back (58.45), 200 back (2:06.49), 100 fly (58.44), and 200 fly. Her highest finish came in the 200 fly, where she swam a season best 2:11.22 to finish 20th in the final.
She also attends Green Level High School, where she swam at the Southwest Wake Conference meet. There, she finished 7th in the 100 back (1:01.20) and 4th in the 100 fly (59.34).
Talwar’s SCY Best Times:
- 100 fly- 56.08
- 200 fly- 2:05.25
- 20 back- 2:03.58
- 200 IM- 2:07.85
The United States Air Force Academy women’s team competes in the Mountain West Conference, and they finished 8th out of 10 teams at the 2025 championships, more than 150 points behind Colorado State in 7th.
On last season’s team, Talwar would have been 5th in the 100 fly, 8th in the 200 fly, 8th in the 200 back, and 13th in the 200 IM. Most of the athletes ahead of her in the fly and backstroke events will have graduated by the time she arrives on campus, and she will be crucial in helping to rebuild those events.
