[FAST News] Update on Walter at World Championships

[Fort Worth Area Swim Team Mailing List]

Congratulations to Walter Rumans who, after suffering some stomach ailments earlier in the week, rebounded nicely to finish off his trip to the FINA Junior World Championships in Monterrey Mexico.
  Walter advanced to the Semi-finals in both the 50 and 100 Free and anchored the United States 400 Free Relay to a 5th place finish.
  Yesterday, a healthier Walter anchored the U.S. 4 x 100 Medley Relay to a Bronze Medal, just missing out on the silver by a tenth of a second.  His split was a fantastic 50.13 at the end of the race.
    Also, as of this meet, Walter will be named a member of the U.S. Junior National Team for 2008-2009 as the top qualfying 18 and Under 100 Freestyler in the country.  Depending on USA-S rules, he may also represent the United States later next year in Guam at the Junior Pan-Pacific Championships.

  Way to go Walter......great way to finish!!
