Upper Dublin High School junior Abbie Amdor has announced her verbal commitment to the Pennsylvania State University women’s swimming and diving team for 2019-20.
“I am proud to announce that I have verbally committed to pursue my academic and swimming career at Penn State University! I can’t wait to be a Nittany Lion! WE ARE!!”
Amdor recently placed second in the 200 free (1:49.04) and third in the 100 free (50.06) at the 2018 PIAA AAA Girls Swimming and Diving Championships. She also led off Upper Dublin’s 200 and 400 free relays, both of which were runners-up.
Amdor does her year-round club swimming with Upper Dublin Aquatic Club. At the recent Middle Atlantic Short Course Senior Championships, she won the 100 free, took third in the 50 free, was a B-finalist in the 500 free and 100 back, and won the C finals of the 200 free and 100 fly. She earned new PBs in the 500 free, 100 back, and 100 fly, two weeks after having gone best times in the 50/100/200 free at PIAA States. Last summer, Amdor notched PBs in LCM 50/100/200 free and 50 breast at the NCSA Summer Championships.
