Additional Notes
An Australian Age Record went down at the hands of 14-year-old Ishaaq Ismail of Surrey Park. Ismail won his age category’s 50m fly in a time of 24.80 as the sole competitor of the field to delve under the 25-second barrier. His time erased the former age mark of 24.97 Maxwell Cunningham put on the books two years ago. MLC Aquatic’s Lucy Ma claimed gold in the 14-year-old girls’ 400m IM, registering a time of 4:58.78. This gold is added to an already solid haul, bringing her total tally to six pieces of hardware altogether. Ma has swept the 200m and 400m individual medley titles, 100m and 50m breaststroke titles and the 200m and 100m backstroke titles, and she has picked up a silver in the 200m freestyle. Ma still has the 100m freestyle to go. Olivia Hine was .01away from cracking a national age record of Olympian Emily Seebohm‘s that has remained unbeatable for almost 16 years. Hine, who trains at Somerville House under Tim Lane, clocked 26.09 to win the 18-year girls’ 50m butterfly, a fingernail outside of Seebohm’s record time of 26.08. Jessica Whiting (Traralgon -26.93) and Audrey Jackson (Abbotsleigh – 27.09) placed second and third respectively.Read the full story on SwimSwam: Lincoln Wearing Joins Elite List Of All-Time Aussie 16-Yr-Old 1500 Performers
