(Oldenburg, Ind.) – An Oldenburg Academy freshman has been selected to attend the 2024 USA Swimming Zone Select Camp.

Nash King has been invited to attend the camp from May 30 through June 2 at the Olympic and Paralympic Training Center in Colorado Springs.

He was invited by USA Swimming to attend based on his performance during the 2023 Long Course season as the fastest 13-14 boy in one of the Olympic events.

King was a state qualifier in the 500 Freestyle with a time of 4:42.42. He was the fastest seeded freshman in the state in this event.

He also helped OA’s 200 Medley Relay and 400 Yard Freestyle Relay teams set school records.

At the USA Swimming Zone Select Camp, King will participate in both in-water practices and classroom sessions designed to motivate athletes as they continue their swimming careers.

The hope is that attendees will put themselves on track for qualifying for their first USA National Junior Team.
