Auburn junior swimmer Annie Lazor was honored with a spot on the USA Swimming roster for the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto, Canada, Wednesday, April 1. The junior will compete in the 100m and 200m breaststroke for the USA team in the third-largest international multi-sport event in the world on July 14-18. Lazor is coming off strong swims in the 2015 NCAA Women’s Swimming and Diving Championships where she and five other Tigers earned All-America honors. Touching in at 2:08.41 in the 200-yard breaststroke in the consolation final was the second-best swim in school history and a only .18 seconds shy of the school record.
