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.
