Albany Armada Aquatics hosted a distance meet this past Saturday, featuring the 500 free for 12&u, as well as the open 1000 free, 1650 free, and 400 IM.
12-year-old Luka Mijatovic, who competes for Pleasanton Seahawks, won the mixed 1000 free in his time ever racing the event. The 4:50.25 500 freestyler was able to put together a 9:54.13, not only coming in under 10:00 in his first attempt at the race, but landing himself in the all-time top 10 for 11-12 boys as well. With the performance, Mijatovic is now the #8 performer all-time among 11-12 year olds. Matthew Hirschberger holds the 11-12 boys NAG at 9:38.50.
Mijatovic currently looks like he excels more in longer events. Here are his current freestyle personal bests:
- 50 free – 23.80
- 100 free – 50.53
- 200 free – 1:48.51
- 500 free – 4:50.25
- 1000 free – 9:54.13
Also of note: 9-year-old Pleasanton Seahawks swimmer Ethan Cheng clocked a 6:09.38 to win the boys 10&under 500 free. That swim makes Cheng the 17th-fastest 9-year-old nationally in the event this year.
