Wilson York breaks 13-14 Boys NAG with 2:15.11 in Indianapolis

NCSA SUMMER CHAMPIONSHIPS 2024

Wilson York of the Lakeside Swim Team in Kentucky swam to a new national record for boys 13-14 years old (NAG) in the LCM 200 breaststroke. York swam to a time of 2:15.11, under Ethan Dang‘s record of 2:15.84 from 2016.

Before Dang, the record was held by Reece Whitley who swam a 2:16.48 in 2014, a time that still ranks second all-time for the age group. Dang now swims at Stanford while Whitley later went to swim for Cal.

Splitting equation

York was much slower than Dang, but was only able to close the race by two seconds. York lost significant time in the race when he came in with a 2:18.08 from the January Pro Series stop in Knoxville. That time previously ranked #4 all-time in the age group.

York has had a busy week of competition in Indianapolis and has his final individual race tomorrow in the 200 IM. He swam the 100 breaststroke earlier this week with a 1:03.77 in the final, exactly half a second slower than his 1:03.27 start time.
