Congrats to T2 Aquatics athletes who brought home a 1st Place Men's Award, 3rd Place Women's Award, and a 3rd Place Overall Award at the Florida Gold Coast Senior Championships meet. It was a tight competition the whole way through between T2, South Florida Aquatic Club, and Gulliver Swim Clun. Congrats to all Teams & Athletes on a great competition! T2's Jack Scanlon won the Individual "High Point" Award for Men in the Open Age Group.
Some of the highlights on the final day include T2's 1-2-3-4 in the Men's 1650. Jack Scanlon went 15:39 which places him 22nd in the USA for 17 year old guys. Emma Feehery was 2nd in the Women's 1650 & put up a 16:49, good for 15th in the USA currently for 15 year old girls.
We had a few "time breakthroughs" during this meet. On example was Shawn Lemarie Shawn has raced the 200 Free 56 times SCY in his life (we looked it up), & last weekend went 1:39.6 to get under 1:40 for the first time in his life -- and on his last opportunity as a High School swimmer to do so. Shawn also went 46.9 in the 100 Free, breaking 47 in a similar fashion.
Another breakthrough: Karen Lui went 1:49.8, becoming the 7th T2 Aquatics athlete to swim sub 1:50 in the event. Karen also raced a 2:00.7 200 IM, which places her 17th in the USA for 16 year old girls.
Between Karen, Emma, Jack, Wyatt Kellett (16 year old 200 Breast), Matt Limbacher (15 year old 100 Breast) -- T2 currently has 5 athletes ranked in the Top 25 in the USA for their age, and each athlete has at least one more year of High School to improve that ranking further. We have a few more knocking on the door as well!
Great job T2 -- let's have a great month of training leading into the Summer!
