- Live Results
15-year old Nathan Hayes of the hosts KING broke a 22-year old PNS Record on Saturday, the final day of the PNS Senior Champs. He swam 2:05.53 to place 2nd in the 200 backstroke, which broke 15-16 LSC record in the event that was set by Chris Jacobson in 1995.
That record might not last for long, however. Finishing one spot, and three-hundredths, behind him was his 14-year old teammate Tyler Lu in 2:05.56. That gave Lu the 13-14 LSC Record, breaking his own record of 2:07.80 set exactly a year ago from Sunday.
They both trailed 19-year old winner Aaron Elhajj, who won in 2:03.49.
