Nebraska State Champion Jadeon Carter Flips Commitment From Mizzou to Nebraska-Omaha
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.
Jadeon Carter from Lincoln, Nebraska, has flipped his commitment and will now stay in-state as he has committed to Nebraska-Omaha. Carter originally committed to Missouri in August 2024.
Carter just finished his senior year at Lincoln East High School and does his club swimming with Lincoln Select.
This past spring, Carter swam to a Nebraska High School state title in the 500 freestyle. He swam to a season best 4:39.09 but was faster in prelims with a 4:36.66. He finished 2nd in the 200 free in a season best of a 1:41.45.
In March, Carter swam to numerous lifetime bests at Sectionals in Columbia, Missouri. There he swam a 1:49.61 200 back for 15th as well as a 4:05.92 in the 400 IM for 21st. He also notched a personal best of a 51.96 in the 100 back.
Carter’s best SCY times are:
- 200 free: 1:41.20
- 500 free: 4:34.01
- 100 back: 51.96
- 200 back: 1:49.61
The Nebraska-Omaha men finished 4th out of seven teams at the 2025 Summit League Championships. They scored 507.5 points finishing just behind 3rd place South Dakota State that scored 544 points. Owen Hoak led the way for Omaha with 29.5 individual points including 4th place finishes in the 50 and 100 freestyles.
Based on his best times, Carter would have made the conference ‘B’ final in the 200 back and finished 12th overall. It took a 1:48.53 to make the 200 back ‘A’ final. His 200 free also would have made the conference ‘B’ final.
Carter will arrive this fall as a member of the class of 2029 along with Brady Wainionpaa (breaststroker), Mason Zadina (fly/sprint free), and Carson Agnew (breaststroker).

Trey McKenney comes up clutch as Michigan survives Nebraska | UM Hoops.com
After trailing for nearly the entire game, Michigan needed an improbable hero to rescue an imperfect performance in a top-five rendezvous with Nebraska. Hitting the game winner with 1:07 to go, freshman guard Trey McKenney had the biggest moment of his young career.
“The baseline was kind of open, because they were forcing us to the baseline,” McKenney said. “They wouldn’t give us middle drives. So I just had to take advantage of that and get one in for a layup.”
Graduate forward Yaxel Lendeborg drove in from the right wing and was quickly doubled, akin to how the Cornhuskers guarded dribble drives all game. McKenney’s defender rotated to junior center Aday Mara in the post. Lendeborg found McKenney, who, with a quick fake took to the left baseline bumping into guard Sam Hoiberg and laying it in through contact.
“I thought he got to a spot and played with power,” May said.
In the same breath, May knocked the Wolverines’ offensive rhythm. He lauded how Nebraska’s rotations limited them all game. But in the pivotal moment, McKenney took one of the few things the Cornhuskers were giving them and allowed Michigan to escape.
After May wrapped up his assessment of the Wolverines’ shortcomings on the offensive end, he brought it back to McKenney — but pointed to a moment arguably as big as the go-ahead layup.
“I thought his three free throws were probably the biggest points in the game,” May said. “Sandfort just missed a free throw. We were down (seven). We were in a funk, in a fog. Elliot made a nice pass to Trey (who) jumped up aggressively. Luckily, we were able to get the foul on that play and Hoiberg got under his feet a little bit. He knocks down those three free throws and you can almost see that sense of belief that now we’re getting stops. Our defense is on, now let’s find a way, because at that point you’re down two possessions versus three.”

Former Nebraska City doctor ruled competent to stand trial
LINCOLN, Neb. (WOWT) – Medical experts at the Lincoln Regional Center have determined a doctor arrested for two different cases involving minors is now competent to stand trial.
Dr. Travis Tierney, 56, was taken into custody by a fugitive team at the airport last May. He is accused of sneaking into a West Omaha home to have sex with a boy between the ages of 12 and 15.
Investigators allege Tierney did this three weekends in a row in April 2024.
Last summer, Tierney, a former Nebraska City neurosurgeon, was wanted for allegedly swapping nude photos with a 16-year-old boy in Sarpy County. He was out on bond and not supposed to leave the county when investigators realized he was in Arizona.
State psychiatrists have now determined he is competent to stand trial in both cases.
Tierney is currently in custody at the Sarpy County Jail on a $5 million bond.
