Records Fell at the ISCA Summer Elite Showcase!
|
Congratulations to all of the AGUA swimmers who raced at the 2022 ISCA Summer Elite Showcase Classic in St. Petersburg, FL! Check out our Instagram to see shout-outs to all of the team's individual and relay medalists.
A special congratulations to Bruce Qian for achieving second place in the 12-year-old boys' high-point scores and Eva Johnson for landing third place in the 12-year-old girls' high-point scores. Additionally, Bruce set two new AGUA team records — and lowered his marks — in the 50- and 100-meter butterfly while Eva set a new meet record in the 50-meter butterfly.
Parker Lee-Walters and Mayrah Johnson also placed third in the high-point scores for 9-and-under boys and 10-and-under girls, respectively.
Another six meet records were set courtesy of Maddie Lent (100 backstroke), Alegra Teixidor-Salerno (100 and 200 breaststroke), and Milly Birch (50 and 100 butterfly and 400 IM).
Milly's efforts also earned her first place in the 11-year-old girls' high-point scores and four national top-ten swim times. In the United States for 11-year-old girls, Milly now ranks third in the 400 IM, fourth in the 800 freestyle, seventh in the 200 butterfly, and tenth in the 200 backstroke!
The AGUA coaches would also like to thank Cece Arabadjiev, Vincent Gookin, Alegra Teixidor-Salerno, and Chloe Yang for standing out as RAD teammates throughout the weekend.
