Camden Murphy, Michael Andrew Play Tug-of-War With 100 Fly NAG

2015 SPEEDO WINTER JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIPS – EAST AND WEST

It’s a battle of East vs. West in the 100 fly for the 15-16 short course yards national age group record. This morning at Speedo Winter Junior Championships- West in Austin, Michael Andrew lowered his own record from 46.36 to 46.34.

But not to be outdone, representing the East and Kingfish Aquatics, Camden Murphy answered with a 46.25 in Atlanta, the only swimmer to go under 47 at his meet. He dropped nearly a second from his swim this morning.
