Pinecrest Academy’s Michael Denkman has been selected to represent Forsyth County as part of an all-star swimming team, the Forsyth County Tide.

The rising freshman took home first place in the 100-yard individual medley with a time of 1:04.18 and added an eighth-place finish in the 50-yard breast stroke at the Atlanta Swim Association Championship Finals on June 30 at the Georgia Tech Aquatic Center.

The Paladins’ standout earned a spot in the finals with a strong showing at the Forsyth County Championship meet a day earlier, as he placed second in the 50-yard breast stroke with a time of 32.79 and fifth in the 100-yard individual medley at 1:05.95.

Denkman will compete in the Georgia Class A Swimming Championship on July 26-27 at the Frances Meadows Aquatic and Community Center in Gainesville.
