Career
Fred Fries swam for SSV Trier . In the Olympic elimination in 1964, he finished fourth over 200 meters breast, with a tenth behind third place. Places one to three in this discipline were taken by East German swimmers. Since there was an all-German team at the 1964 Olympic Games , he did not take part in the Olympic Games that year.
