Some of the top age groupers are competing in Georgia this weekend. Swim Atlanta’s mixed 10 and under 200 free relay broke the National Age Group (NAG) record swimming a 1:47.09.
The team of Parker Wheeler, Haley Bolduc, Mallory Klemmer, and Alex Kirsling swam to a final time of 1:47.09. That was faster than the previous record of a 1:49.51 set back in 2020 by Santa Clara Swim Club.

As seen in the splits, the biggest difference tonight was on the lead off split as Wheeler was over two seconds faster than Elaydi was. Notably, both relays had the same relay order going boy-girl-girl-boy.
Video of the race can be seen below. As it was a time trial, the relay was swimming alone.

My 10 year old 50 free time was around 27 seconds- didn’t even know 25 was possible lol
insane times glad I was swimming and watching insane🤝🔥‼️
Great job. Did the anchor leave early?
yes they did i was there
Congratulations, but am I the only one that thought the anchor false started?
when I was 10, I think this was approximately my 100 free time
When do these kids age up? Asking for a friend.
bolduc and klemmer have a while left in the age group. wheeler ages up next week and kirsling i think around march
Klemmer aged up the same time as Wheeler. End of December.
Klemmer and Wheeler aged up at the end of December. The other 2 swimmers have a couple of months left.
25.4 lead off is great but how about the girl next to him being a foot shorter and splitting 26?!?
If I had to guess, less resistance & high turnover that is complimented by a powerful kick for her stature.
and she only took 1 breath…
I was thinking the same thing. Her stroke looked amazing, good coaching going on down there in Atlanta.
They got 10 year olds going 25s now?!?!?!
I remember when I was 10 (quite some time ago), I won zones with a 26.9. Probably my peak as a swimmer. Now, 26.9 doesn’t even win most AG Champs meets for each LSC. At least the one I coach in now, it wouldn’t have made top 3 last year.
