Lakeside Aquatic Club swimmers broke a pair of 11-12 National Age Group Records in the mixed medley relays (SCY) over the weekend in Justin, Tex., competing at the LAC Ice Breaker meet.
Both record-breaking relays consisted of the same four swimmers: 11-year-old Kennedi Southern and 12-year-olds Lily Andruss, Charlie Wang and Evan Pan-Wang.
In the mixed 200 medley relay, the quartet of Andruss (27.73), Wang (28.48), Pan-Wang (24.74) and Southern (24.64) combined for a time of 1:45.59, lowering the previous 11-12 NAG of 1:46.51 set by Nation’s Capital Swim Club in 2019.
That NCAP team consisted of Simon Bermudez, Lleyton Arnold, Madisyn Carter, and Ainsley Taylor.
