Both are currently 16.
Nitro 14-year-old Jeremy Kelly was fourth in the 200 IM in a lifetime best 1:50.66. He shoots up to #9 all-time in the 13-14 age group.
In that race, Metroplex 16-year-old Zhier Fan picked up a win in the 200 IM, coming in just off of a best with a 1:47.92.

Woodlands Swim Team’s Tyler Hulet had another great swim after nearly breaking 47 in the 100 back last night. He dropped over a second in the 200 back, winning by over four seconds with a big 1:42.87.
On the women’s side, Malia Rausch added to her win tally with a 16:19.80. That time is a best by almost 20 seconds for the Austin Swim Club standout. Rausch went a best in the 100 free, too, going 49.78, though she was beaten to the finish by South Shore Sails’ Cory Shanks (49.62). Shanks was a few tenths off of her best.
OTHER NOTABLE SWIMS

The overall speed and depth in this meet is insane.
agreed, also this aggies class is going to be really good… hulet, reno, kabbara
With as small of a meet as it was, the competition was incredible. Kinda crazy to see some times from prelims that did not make it into A finals. Hulet missed the 100FR A final with a 45.94 prelim swim.
