Mixed Age Boys Smash Gator Team Record

The Mixed Age Boys relay of Nick Dupuis, James Piland, Cameron Morey, and Kevin Adams-Mardi broke a 51 week old team record at the Divisional Relay Carnival.

The foursome swam it 1.31 seconds faster than the quartet of Nick Dupuis, Andrei Zaitsev, Cameron Morey, and Cyrus Adams-Mardi did on July 10, 2013.

What’s wild is that the 2013 swim broke a year old record that included Cameron, Nick, Kevin, and Cyrus. So, of the four new record holders, three of them held it two years ago, and two of them held it last year. The first set of record breakers broke a record set back in 1967.  So a record that lasted 45 years – since LBJ was President – has since been broken not once, not twice, but three times – which is one more time than the Miami Heat have won title since LBJ (LeBron James) joined the team.
