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.
Jamie Brinsfield from Wilmington, Delaware, has announced his intention to swim and study at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology beginning next fall. He confirmed to SwimSwam:
“I’m thrilled to announce my commitment to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to continue my academic and athletic career. Thank you to Coach Matt and Coach Meg for this opportunity. Another special thanks to my coaches, parents, teachers, and sister who have supported me throughout this journey. Go Engineers! ⚙️”
Brinsfield is a senior at Tower Hill School. He swims year-round with Suburban Seahawks Club in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania. At the 2025 Delaware Independent Schools State Championships last February, he won the 100 free (45.64) and 200 free (1:39.35), both with personal-best times, and anchored the 200 free relay (21.35) and swam a leg (46.11) on the 400 free relay.
Just last month, at the Katie Ledecky Invitational, he updated his PBs in the 50 free (20.88), 100 free (44.83), 100 back (52.20), 100 fly (51.49), and 200 IM (1:53.76), placing 10th in the 50 free, 4th in the 100 free, 12th in the 200 free, 21st in the 100 back, 36th in the 100 fly, and 21st in the 200 IM.
In long-course season last summer, Brinsfield earned PBs in the 50/100 free and 50 back at the NCSA Summer Swimming Championships, where he finished 18th in the 50 free and 19th in the 100 free.
Brinsfield will join swimmers Aasish Dangol, Alexander Wong, Jayden Chan, and diver Jasper Stackawitz, in the Engineers’ class of 2030. His best times would have scored in the ‘A’ finals of the 50, 100, and 200 free at the 2025 NEWMAC Championships, which MIT won for the 16th-straight time.
Best SCY times:
- 50 free – 20.88
- 100 free – 44.83
- 200 free – 1:39.35
