Charlotte Sanddal traveled to St. George, Utah last month for the Huntsman World Senior Games. In addition to setting several Montana LMSC records at the meet (see latest SCM update), she also set a USMS national record and a FINA world record for women 95-99 in the 200 meter individual medley (short-course) with a time of 9:32.59.
