Chikopi’s Chris Manning speeds to two more wins at SEC Championships.
“We did it! 15th straight SEC Championships. I swam the 50 free, 100 free and 100 breast. I went 19.7 in the 50, 43.7 in the 100 and 54.9 in the 100 breast. I’m really happy with how I swam. I’m not fully rested so there’s more to go at NCAA’s for sure. I also swam on the 200 free relay. I split a 19.2 and we made the NCAA ‘A’ time so I’ll be seeing you in Minnesota Bob! Here’s a video of the relay, we are in lane 4, I went third. Anyways, now it is back to training and schoolwork! See you soon!”
