The Speedo Sectional meet in Buffalo, NY kicked off last night with the distance session. In the women’s 800 free, Scarlet Aquatics teammates Kate Hurst, 16, and Chloe Kim, 14, went 1-2 in a tight race. Racing in adjacent lanes, the pair swam next each other the whole way through the race. Kim had a slight lead at the 400 mark, flipping in 4:25.80, while Hurst was right behind in 4:25.99. Hurst was able to negative the split the race by a hair, coming home in 4:25.83, while Kim was 4:26.44 on the final 400 meters.
In the end, Hurst won in 8:51.82, with Kim touching right behind in 8:52.24. Both girls came in just under their previous best times in the event.
Scarlet Aquatics 17-year-old Steven Bendoraitis won the men’s 1500 by nearly 7 seconds, clocking a 15:55.34. The swim was 15 seconds off his personal best of 15:40.72, which he swam last summer.
