(NLI Photos) Northwestern signs butterflyer Malone

SwimAtlanta senior Aja Malone has signed her NLI to swim for Northwestern University this coming fall. The Allatoona High School star looks like an immediate-impact pickup in the butterfly races for the Wildcats.

Malone is a Georgia state champion with incoming times that would already rank her in the Northwestern all-time top 5 in several events.

She’s been 54.17 in the 100 fly and 1:59.16 in the 200 fly and adds to that a 56.26 100 back. Beyond that, Malone has probably been even more impressive in long course, going 1:00.77 in the 100 fly and 2:15.24 in the 200.
