MUMBAI, SEPT 27: Shane Pedder made the 62nd Senior State Swimming Championships a meet to remember. Today, the 21-year-old Greater Mumbai lad became the fastest man of the meet, broke the long-standing 100m butterfly stroke record, and justifiably picked up individual honours in the men's section. Pedder lowered Reza Shirazi's record of 1:03.10 set in 1995 with a 1:02.82 effort.Pune walked out of the water polo men's final owing to a controversial decision against Mumbai.
