IUPUI Picks Up Commitment from Versatile Mihir Chandra of Rockwood Swim Club

Fitter and Faster Swim Clinics is the proud sponsor of SwimSwam’s College Recruiting Channel and all commitment news. For many, swimming in college is a lifelong dream that is pursued with dedication and determination. Fitter and Faster is proud to honor these athletes and those who supported them on their journey.

Mihir Chandra from Ellisville, Missouri has announced his verbal commitment to Indiana University – Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) for the 2020-21 school year. He will join future classmate Ben Kimmel in the class of 2024. Chandra swims for Rockwood Swim Club and competes in free, breast, fly, and IM. He is a Winter Juniors qualifier in the 100 breast and a Futures qualifier in the 50 free, 200 free, 200 breast, 100 fly, and 200 IM. This summer he competed at Jenks Sectionals and NCSA Summer Championship and amassed a slew of LCM lifetime bests: 50 free (24.77), 100 free (54.46), 200 free (1:59.52), 50 breast (30.06), 100 breast (1:06.42), 200 breast (2:29.83), 50 fly (26.84), and 100 fly (58.62). At NCSAs he finaled in the 50/100 breast, while at Jenks he was 13th in the 50 breast, 25th in the 100 breast, 25th in the 200 breast, 23rd in the 100 fly, and 15th in the 200 IM.

The Horizon League only scores two finals at the championship meet but already, Chandra’s best short course times would have helped the Jaguars. He would have made the B final of the 100 breast and would have been very close to scoring in the 200 breast and 200/400 IM.

Top SCY times:

  • 100 breast – 57.35
  • 200 breast – 2:08.13
  • 200 IM – 1:54.81
  • 400 IM – 4:05.98
  • 50 free – 21.99
  • 100 free – 47.49
  • 200 free – 1:41.28
