While the SwimMAC girls set a new Jr National meet record in the 800 free relay at the Eastern Championships, the Nitro boys did the same at the Western Champs.
Corban Rawls, Sean Grieshop, Micah Slaton, and Taylor Abbott combined for a final time of 6:32.88, which broke the 6:33.02 mark set in 2014 by the Santa Clara Swim Club.
Splits
Corban Rawls – 1:38.38
Sean Grieshop – 1:36.30
Micah Slaton – 1:40.18
Taylor Abbott – 1:38.02
The only member of that relay to double up with the 200 medley was Slaton, who provided a 22.14 fly leg prior to swimming this relay.
SCSC’s 6:33.02 was set at last year’s championships, and was made up of Aidan Burns, Cooper Burrill, Michael Messner, and David Farr.
Congratulations to Corban! Had the pleasure of being his coach from 8-10 years old. Fantastic family who are raising a great kid. Keep up the good work! Very proud.
Sean is amazing in free but that 200 free was extraordinary
Michael Jensen’s 1:34 wasn’t too shabby out east.
So will they continue to maintain one JN record or an East and West record?
NITRO!!!!!!!!!
Sean Grishop has massive potential in freestyle events.
He is future Olympics and World Championships medalist, I have been following him since he was 10 and knew he was going to be a superstar.
