WRAT Swimmers Make a Big Splash at Zones
The Water Rats returned from The Eastern Zone Age Group Championships and everyone had great swims! The meet is comprised of the top swimmers representing NY, NJ, MD, VA, and all of New England.
Mia Bullock placed 2nd in the 200 Breast 2:28.61. This was a 4 second drop from her seed time and made the YMCA National Cut by over a second (although she can not attend until after she turns 12 in August). The time puts her 1st in the nation for 11-year-olds and is a new WRAT team record by over 10 seconds.
