Canadian Swimming Trials wrapped up this weekend, and BC Provincial Records were broken 3 times over the meet! We would like to congratulate Laon Kim (Hyack Swim Club) for breaking the LCM 13-14 Men 100m Freestyle record and the LCM 13-14 Men 200m Medley record. He broke the 100m Freestyle record with a time of 52.84. In the 200m Medley, he broke the record in prelims with a time of 2:09.94 then lowered it even more in finals with a time of 2:08.70. He has previously broken 4 provincial records this season in the Men 13-14 Short Course Meters 200m Freestyle, 200m Medley, 100m Freestyle and 100m Butterfly. Congrats Laon!
