Wilson York Breaks 13-14 Boys NAG With 2:15.11 200 Breaststroke In Indianapolis

2024 NCSA SUMMER CHAMPIONSHIPS

Wilson York of Lakeside Swim Team in Kentucky swam to a new boys 13-14 national age group (NAG) record in the LCM 200 breast. York swam to a 2:15.11, getting under Ethan Dang‘s record of a 2:15.84 from 2016.

Prior to Dang, the record was held by Reece Whitley who swam a 2:16.48 in 2014, a time that still sits at #2 all-time for the age group. Dang now swims at Stanford while Whitley went on to swim for Cal.

Split Comparison

York Dang
100 1:06.22 1:04.99
200 1:08.89 1:10.85
2:15.11 2:15.84

York was out much slower than Dang was but was able to only have a two second fall-off in the race. York dropped a significant amount of time in the race as he entered with a 2:18.08 from January’s Pro Series stop in Knoxville. That time previously sat at #4 all-time in the age group.

York has had a busy week of competition in Indianapolis and has his last individual race with the 200 IM tomorrow. He notably swam the 100 breast earlier this week with a 1:03.77 in finals, exactly half a second off his 1:03.27 entry time.

Congrats Wilson… AMAZING swim! Also nabbed the Olympic trial cut in the process (at 14.5 years old)!
