The Aquajet Swim Team boys broke the 15-18 national age group (NAG) record as well as Summer Juniors meet record tonight as they touched in a final time of 3:42.14.
The previous 15-18 NAG stood at a 3:42.71 which the TAC Titans swam just last week at Futures in Ocala. The previous meet record was a 3:42.85 which Coronado Swim Association set a year ago.
Split Comparison:
| Aquajets | TAC Titans (Old NAG) | Coronado (Old Meet) | |
| Back | Luke Logue– 56.40 | Will Thompson– 56.29 |
Jacque Wenger– 56.05
|
| Breast | Charlie Egeland– 1:00.13 | Henry Lee– 1:02.70 |
Nick Mahabir– 1:00.54
|
| Fly | Drew Ploof– 54.85 | Colin Whelehan– 54.52 |
Logan Noguchi– 55.02
|
| Free | Henry Webb– 50.76 | Jerry Fox– 49.20 |
Samuel Quarles– 51.24
|
| 3:42.14 | 3:42.71 | 3:42.85 |
Tonight’s biggest difference was the breaststroke leg as Charlie Egeland split a 1:00.13. That was a huge split for Egeland as he finished third in the individual race earlier in the meet swimming a 1:01.24.
Although Aquajets were not the first to the wall tonight, SwimMAC was ultimately disqualified.
TAC would still hold the NAG if they’d make a different choice for breast and used Nye instead of Lee. See article:
The TAC Titans could have potentially lowered the records even further had they switched out Lee with Grayson Nye, who clocked a breaststroke split of 1:01.80 on the ‘B’ team.

Hindsight is always 20/20, you are correct. Put link above.
You are correct! A record is broken with the FASTEST legal swim! Way to go to my Eden Prairie High School swimmers Logue and Ploof! Way to represent Minnesota, boys and Coach Lundsten!

This is the third time this record has been broken this summer! And before this summer the record had stood at 3:43.63 I’m pretty sure from 2018.
