Both 4x200m freestyle relays moved up in the morning heats. Our junior girls ( Hallett, Hier, Rupert & Greenfield) swam the 4x200m freestyle relay, placing 18th overall in the open category. The boy's team (Guterriez, Roberston, van Maren, & Tchaouchev) finished 11th overall. Congratulations to Alonso who was unofficially under the Junior National 200m freestyle time, leading off the relay with a time of 2:01.12.
