This weekend at the Art Adamson Invite, Silja won the 100 breast with a time of 58.96, a time that would have gotten her an invite to NCAA’s last year.

Silja spoke with SwimSwam after her race and said there is still quite a bit to improve on, noting that the first thing she would work on was her general technique when she returned to Tempe.
