The Virginia Gators had a heck of a night at the ISCA Jr. National Championship Cup in Clearwater, FL Tuesday, breaking two National Age Group Records.


Kicking off the first session of the meet, the squad of Emma Muzzy (16), Caroline Kulp (16), Olivia Bray (15), and Whittney Hamilton (15) eclipsed SwimMAC Carolina's previous women's 15-16 NAG Record of 1:39.61 in the 200 medley relay from 2013 with a swift 1:39.21. SwimMAC's 2013 relay included someone by the name of Kathleen Baker. You may have heard of her…

Here are the comparative splits:

Virginia Gators - 2017

Emma Muzzy (24.97)
Caroline Kulp (28.86)
Olivia Bray (23.15)
Whittney Hamilton (22.23) 
1:39.21

SwimMAC Carolina - 2013

Kathleen Baker (24.74)
Caitlin Casazza (28.94)
Alyssa Marsh (23.76)
Nora McCullagh (22.17)
1:39.61

Closing out the night, the same squad of Bray, Kulp, Muzzy, and Hamilton annihilated the 15-16 NAG Record in the 200 freestyle relay by almost a full second with a blistering 1:30.99. The previous record was 1:31.84 from a very similar SwimMAC Carolina squad in 2012.
