This past summer, he raced to eighth in the 50m fly at NCSAs after taking 10th in the 100m fly and 11th in the 200m fly at Indiana LCM Seniors. Also competing for Munster High School, Afman was the 100 fly runner-up at the Indiana State Championships as a junior after finishing seventh in that event during his sophomore season.<\/p>\n<p>His best times include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>100 fly &#8211; 48.40<\/li>\n<li>200 fly &#8211; 1:50.32<\/li>\n<li>50 free &#8211; 21.52<\/li>\n<li>100 free &#8211; 46.76<\/li>\n<li>200 free &#8211; 1:43.52<\/li>\n<li>500 free &#8211; 4:35.53<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Afman will add valuable depth when he suits up for the Falcons as a member of the class of 2024. He would&#8217;ve scored in the B-final of both the 100 fly and 200 fly at the 2019 Western Athletic Conference Championships where Air Force finished fourth overall in the team standings.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_409924\" style=\"width: 1130px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-409924\" data-attachment-id=\"409924\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/munster-swim-clubs-grant-afman-lends-verbal-commitment-to-air-force\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1120,1300\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"grant afman air force commitment 2020\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;grant afman air force commitment 2020&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Grant Afman&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-882x1024.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-409924 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020.jpg\" alt=\"grant afman air force commitment 2020\" width=\"1120\" height=\"1300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020.jpg 1120w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-882x1024.jpg 882w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-172x200.jpg 172w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-300x348.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-450x522.jpg 450w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-775x900.jpg 775w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-150x174.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-431x500.jpg 431w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/grant-afman-air-force-commitment-2020-533x619.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1120px) 100vw, 1120px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-409924\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Grant Afman<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em>If you have a commitment to share, please send a photo and quote via email to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:hs@swimmingworld.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">hs@swimmingworld.com<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW COMMIT:\u00a0Munster, Ind. native and butterfly specialist Grant Afman has pledged his verbal commitment to the United States Air Force Academy and will arrive on campus in the fall of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":101,"featured_media":409925,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[8],"tags":[61683,120279],"class_list":["post-409921","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-high-school","tag-agon-high-school-recruits-page","tag-grant-afman"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.3 (Yoast SEO v24.3) -
