Records smashed at Age Group Champs
Several new records were set at the 2019 NCS Long Course Age Group Champs meet at the Triangle Aquatic Center in Cary this past weekend. While only one record fell in the 13-14 age group, the younger groups broke a bunch. A total of ten individual records and three relay records were set over the weekend.
Shayna Elgart (MOR) broke her own 10U 100 free record and added another in the girls 50 fly. MOR teammates Devon Whitlock broke the girls 10U 50 free mark while another MOR swimmer, Raston Sharron, broke the boys 10U 50 breast record. Sloane Whelehan (TAC) set the new 10U standard in the girls 100 back.
TAC Titans Lily Willis and Nicole Zettel each broke two records in the girls 11-12 division. Willis added her name to the breaststroke records while Zettel erased old marks in both the 200 and 400 IM.
Matthew Lucky (SAIL) set the lone record in the 13-14 age group by swimming a 2:21.60 in the 200 breast.
TAC 11-12 girls set new relay records in both the 200 free relay and the 400 free relay. Mere Whelehan, Nicole Zettel, and Elery Eward were joined by Sydney Holfelder in setting the 200 free relay record and by Lily Willis in establishing the new mark in the 400 free relay.
Finally, the SwimMAC 11-12 boys team of Max Osman, Norvin Clontz, Granger Bartee, and John Kroll broke the 400 free relay to cap off a weekend of sensational swimming.

Become a Safe Sport Recognized Club
So what is YOUR CLUB waiting for?
A little more than a year ago, a group of NCS athletes took the initiative to produce a video on the importance of Safe Sport in their world of swimming. Fast forward to today and Safe Sport has to be the most talked about subject on the pool deck and for good reason. Nothing is more important than creating and maintaining a safe, healthy, and positive environment for our athletes and all members of USA Swimming. To that end, an important step is to become a Safe Sport Recognized Club.
Following on the heels of the Cape Fear Aquatic Club, High Point Swim Club recently received their badge of honor as a USA Swimming Safe Sport Recognized Club. According to HPSC CEO/Head Coach Aaron Reeves, “most clubs have many of the required elements already in place and it only takes a minimal effort to complete the process.”
I want to thank both clubs for taking the initiative to upgrade their policies and procedures, and enhance the Safe Sport education of their athletes and all of their members on this very important program.
If you have questions, please contact the NCS Safe Sport and Safety Coordinator – Rebecca Landre (safetychair@ncswim.org) or visit the Safe Sport page on the NCS website.
