Great swimming continues for RSA at Junior Nationals!

Congrats to Torrey Bussey for earning her first Olympic Trial qualifying time this afternoon in a time trial. Torrey swam a 1:11.95 to better the standard of 1:12.59.

This was a significant drop from last night's 1:13.05 which was also a tremendous lifetime best for Torrey. Congrats!
