CEDAR FALLS, Iowa --- UNI sophomore Faith Larsen will represent the purple and gold on the national stage on Thursday as Panther divers stay in state for consecutive days of competition.
ÂFAITH LARSEN - U.S. Open | 50-Meter Freestyle
One of UNI's standout sprinters, Larsen will compete at the Toyota U.S. Open Championships in Greensboro, N.C. on Thursday in the 50-meter freestyle in a rare in-season opportunity to compete in a long course event. Larsen enters Thursday's preliminaries seeded 29th out of 56Â swimmers with a long course time of 26.25. Other notable swimmers in the 50-meter freestyle include Olympic medalists Abbey Weitzel, along with fellow MVC sprinter Chloe Farro of Indiana State. Larsen enters the U.S. Open with the fastest time in the 50-yard freestyle in the MVC, posting a time of 22.96 in her last outing at the Kansas Classic.
