The Hyack Swim Club’s Justin Jung ripped up some old records last week, cutting to the head of the class at the Surrey Knights Swim Club’s Splash and Dash meet.
Jung won his boys 11-12 year old division’s 200-metre and 1500m events while setting new provincial and club marks in the process.
He won the 200m individual medley in 2:20.82, setting a long course B.C. record. It bested his previous fastest time set earlier this year. The Coquitlam native also put in a new mark in the 1500m freestyle race, completing the swim in 17:41.48. It broke Andy Cho’s three-year-old mark of 17:42.51.
Jung would add another club record to his list, with a strong finish in the 100m breaststroke.
Also setting new Hyack records were Laon Kim, who took an eraser to an 18-year-old record in the male 10 and under 50m free. He also put up a new mark in the 200m breaststroke, finishing in 3:04.98.
Paul Orogo notched a new club time for the 11-12 boys 50m backstroke, finishing in 31.49 seconds.
Yolanda Ling, meanwhile, was a trendsetter for the Hyacks in the 11-12 girls 50m breast race with a time of 37.71.
