After a successful swim career at West Hartford Aquatic Team under Coach Rob Riccobon, Baldini committed to swim at Georgetown University for 2019-20.

Baldini said, “I am excited to announce my verbal commitment to study and swim at Georgetown University. I am grateful for the opportunity to attend a school with such dedicated coaches and student athletes. Many thanks to my family, coaches, and teammates for all of their support. I am looking forward to my future at Georgetown! Hoya Saxa!”

Baldini completed his high school swim career at Northwest Catholic and was recognized at a signing ceremony at the school in January.
