CARTER SMASHES 200 Free National Record
Dylan Carter produced an impressive swim in the preliminary of the 200m freestyle male event in 1:42.90 to become the fastest qualifier in the event at the World Short Course Championships in Windsor Canada.
Carter smashed the 200 Freestyle record set by George Bovell III in 2004 of 1:44.81. He won his heat 9 comfortably ahead of Korea’s Taewan Park (1:44.09) and Belgium’s Pieter Timmers, with Park emerging the 7th fastest qualifier moving on to the final.
Franz Huggins, Carter's locally based coach was pleased with the performance.
"The swim this morning looked very controlled. He split his race perfectly and really looked smooth throughout. With Two Olympic 200 freestyle medalists in the final with him tonight, he will have his hands full, but there is no doubt a place on the podium is the goal."
The final is scheduled for after 8:00pm (TT Time), where Carter will get the coveted Lane Four on his quest for precious metal for T & T.
Swima:
He was fourth in the final after dropping another half a second. Excellent performance by a 20 year old.
Swima:
9th this morning in the 50 fly prelims to secure a semi final spot. Will push harder tonight for a spot in the final. 8PM TnT time.
