Teijonsalo brings international experience, elite ability to Sun Devil swimming

TEMPE, Ariz. -- When Sun Devil swimming coach Bob Bowman assessed his second season in Tempe, building more depth on the women's team was near the top of his to-do list.

Indiana high school state champ Emma Nordin, Tennessee champ Erica Laning and California section champ Nora Deleske were the prized recruits to join this year's freshman class, but Bowman also added a swimmer whose future is now when junior Fanny Teijonsalo transferred from Florida Golf Coast after a coaching change at that school.

Teijonsalo is a versatile swimmer who competed for Finland at the World University Games in Taipei, Taiwan in August, finishing 15th with Finland's 4x100 meter free relay team.
