Farlow is 2nd to Olympian twice
It’s not too often someone gets to swim in the same pool as an Olympian.
Cady Farlow had that opportunity on Saturday.
Farlow, a 2015 South Adams High School graduate, earned two more NCAA national B cuts for the Purdue University women’s swim team in a loss to the Indiana Hoosiers.
The sophomore was second in both the 100- and 200-yard breaststroke events to Olympic gold medalist Lilly King of IU. Farlow posted times of 1 minute, 01.91 seconds and 2:15.55 respectively. King, who set an Olympic record (1:04.93) in the 100-meter breaststroke in August, won the 100-yard breaststroke Saturday in 1:00.93 and finished the 200 breaststroke in 2:13.33.
Farlow also swam a breaststroke leg of a 200 medley relay team that was disqualified because of an early take off.
