TAC Titan Trio Blitz NCS Records

December 15, 2020 by Bill Martin

The TAC Titan’s trio of Charlotte Hook, Caroline Pennington, and Claire Curzan accounted for seven new NCS short course records at the TAC Blizzard Blitz this past weekend. Hook set a new record in the women’s 15-16 200 free, Pennington broke the women’s 15-18 1650 free record, and Curzan established new marks in both the 15-16 100 back and 15-16 200 back. Curzan’s 200 back time was also a new 15-18 record, while her 100 back time was a new record for both the 15-18 and the Open age groups.

In a college meet the previous weekend, Coleman Stewart of NC State set a new NCS Open record in the men’s 100 back.

Congratulations!
