His best times are:

  • 100 Free 46.47

  • 1000 Free 9:31.28

Allmon told Swimming World,

“I chose Iowa because on my visit the swimmers made me feel like I was already apart of the team. I believe in Coach Long and what his coaching staff is trying to achieve in the BIG 10 and beyond. Along with the team, Iowa has world class facilities and a homely classroom environment. GO HAWKS!”

Next fall Allmon will join a freestyle group that still includes Joseph MyhreBenjamin ColinJack SmithMatthew Kamin, William Scott, and Stjepan Fiolic.
