Recap of YMCA Nationals and Tar Heel States
Great swimming this past week and weekend to ALL GCY Makos! Click the links below to see the GCY results. Here are a few highlights:
YMCA Nationals Top 20 - Mitchel Cole (100 breast) and Pieter Brower (100 back,100 free, and 200 back)
YMCA Nationals Top 30 - Mitchel Cole (50 breast)
TEAM RECORDS: We are pulling times from years past to create our long course team records, but quick looks tell us there were at least 2 likely broken at this years YMCA Nationals, Pieter Brower 100 free (53.87) and Mitchel Cole 100 breast (1:08.21), and 1 likely broken at Tar Heel States, Jo-Jo Williams 200 back (2:30.45).
LATE BLOOMERS: 2 swimmers made their FIRST YMCA National time cut (12&Over) OR first Junior Olympic (14&Under) time cut - Congrats to the new YMCA National Qualifier, Stuart Moffit, who dropped 5 seconds off his 200 breast for a 2:42, well below the current Y Nats time standard so it should get him into LC Nats next summer. Congrats also to the new JO Qualifier, Lars Hunsucker, who dropped his 100 butterfly time to a 1:20, 2 seconds below the time standard, and won the event at Tar Heel States! This should be better than enough to instantly qualify Lars for the short course JO season.
CONGRATS to all on a great Long Course Season!
