Young Swimmers Pool Resources, Break Records
Congratulations to the quartet of 11- and 12-year-old swimmers who comprised two boys relay teams from the Park Cities YMCA. The foursome broke two records at the YMCA Lone Star Swim Meet last weekend in Frisco.
The team started with a dominating performance in the 200-yard medley relay, including Brooks Kirchen (backstroke), Bo Clarke (breaststroke), Liam Conner (butterfly), and Cameron Laurie (freestyle). Their time of 2 minutes, 4.73 seconds beat the old meet record by three seconds, and was 12 seconds better than the runner-up in the same time.
Later, the same group crushed the competition again in the 200 freestyle relay in a time of 1:51.71 that was two seconds lower than the previous record and 10 seconds better than the second-place team. Their efforts also helped the Park Cities Y win the team title at the meet.
