The Final Days Heats for the Bermuda Amateur Swimming Association’s Schroder’s Summer Age Group’s saw more record breaking and fast swimming.
Personal Best times started the meet in the 50m Breaststroke followed by the 100m Backstroke. The first record fell in the 100m Butterfly with Emma Harvey taking Ashley Yearwood’s record swimming 1:12.69. Maddy Moore was back at her record breaking best in the 50m Freestyle where she went 27.34 taking the record of Ashley Aitken of 27.46 from 1999 which was before she was born.
To finish off the morning there were two relay records taken by the Sharks teams. First in the 4x50 Medley 13-14 the girls team of Shannon Hassell, Paige Bruton, Jessie Thomas and Maddy Moore went 2:13.66 shaving almost 3 seconds off their own record from April. The Boy’s 15-16 team of Philip Hagen, Ferdinand Arnold, Shannon Botelho and Jesse Washington also dropped nearly 3 seconds from their record set in April.
The Grand Finale Tonight was special across the board with all levels of swimmers putting on a show at the BASA pool. 3 records fell in the 100m Backstroke, first up was Moore in the 11 and 12 Finals where she finished first while taking the record from teammate Shannon Hassell. Hassell’s old record was 1:09.57 and Moore finished with a 1:09.32. In the very next event Hassell won the Girls 13-14 Backstroke and recaptured her record with a swim of 1:08.79. This was one of the shortest periods for a record to be held in Bermuda. Jesse Washington followed the girls in his 100m Backstroke by winning in a record time of 1:03.16 which took the record from former Shark Nick Thomson who swam 1:04.27 in 2006.
200 IM was the next in the pool and the races were all very fast and competitive. Philip Hagen continues to regain his pre Carifta form as he shattered his time from the morning in winning the event. There was little time to catch your breath before the 100m Butterfly block began as the next record fell with Emma Harvey lowering her record from the morning going 1:11.61 after her 1:12.69 in the morning heats. Washington was still warmed up from his Backstroke as he entered the 100m Butterfly and swam an impressive 1:01.00 which took the record from fellow Shark Nic Patterson who had held the 1:03.49 record since 2009.
Washington lit the pool up in his 200m Freestyle by taking the first 100m out in 57 seconds and then finishing the rest with an impressive 1:59.42. The record that he broke was from Gerri Mewett and it was set in 1989 at 1:59.78.
Moore capped off her amazing weekend with a 26.93 that took the record that she set in the morning. What is most impressive is that her time is faster than the 17-18 record and she has been 13 for 2 days. Jesse Washington used whatever was left in the tank to equal his 50m Freestyle record of 24.87.
Under overcast skies the Bermuda Amateur Swimming Association’s Schroder’s Summer Age Group Championships continued.
Three individual records were taken in the heats beginning with Finn Mosley as he lowered his own record in the Boys 8 & Under 200m Backstroke from 4:14.30 to 3:34.62. Emma Harvey was back in record form shaving 4 tenths off her own 11-12 Girls 100m IM record in clocking 1:14.26. During the Boys 15 & Over 100m IM, Philip Hagen continued his recorded setting ways with a time of 1:05.11 which lowered his own record.
The Sharks 13-14 Girls 200m Freesytle relay team of Maddy Moore, D’Andra Seymore, Jessie Thomas and Shannon Hassell took the record from 2:00.27 to their time of 1:57.43.
Jesse Washington, Philip Hagen, Shannon Botelho and Ferdinand Arnold joined together representing the Sharks in the Boys 15 & Over 200m Freestyle lowered their own record from 1:49.01 to 1:48.48.

Moore had some issues with her goggles in the morning heats of the 100m Freestyle but in the finals she was all about business. In 40 years of the modern era of Bermuda swimming only 5 female swimmers break the 1:00 barrier in the 100m Freestyle, tonight the just turned 13 year old joined that elite group, the record was 1:01.14 but Moore lowered it to 59.46.
This was a special swim and electrified the pool for the rest of the night.
In the very next heat Hassell swam 1:01.13 to set her 2nd AAA time which makes her eligible for selection to this summer’s CCCAN Championships in Costa Rica.
Jayson Hassell followed his sister and hit his A time in the 100 Freestyle which makes him eligible for the National training team. One of the most impressive swims of the evening was from Dejan Wellman who came in with a personal best of 57.04 but raced to a 55.18.
The 200m Backstroke was the next event up for grabs and the record breaking continued. Finn Moseley took nearly 2 seconds off his record from the morning heats to swim a 3:32.76 on his way to win the 8 and Under event.
The 50m Butterfly was where the records were taken by a trio of swimmers. Emma Harvey in the Girls 11-12 swam 31.14 taking the record from Ashley Yearwood set in 2007. Moore who has just starting to sample Butterfly swam 30.56 to take the Girls 13-14 record from Ashley Aitken set in 1999. Washington followed the girls lead with his 27.09 which beat the 28.14 set in 2001 by Darren Woods.
The night was finally capped off when Shannon Hassell swam the 400m Freestyle where she lowered her personal best from 4:58.67 to her new 4:45.81 which took the record of Ashley Yearwood of 4:46.90 from 2008.
On the second night of the Bermuda Amateur Swimming Association’s Schroder’s Summer Age Group Swimming Championships at the BASA Pool once again saw Personal Best times come fast and furious and the records continued to fall.
First up was the 50m Backstroke which saw Maddy Moore break the Girls 13-14 Record in her first swim as a 13 year old, Moore touched the wall in a time of 31.27.
The 200 IM was next up for the 9 and 10 age group followed by the 400 IM for the 11 and Over’s. Philip Hagen has fully recovered from the broken foot that kept him out of the Carifta Swimming Championships and he dropped 7 seconds in his 400 IM to take the record from Nicholas Patterson after he clocked 5:07.73.
The 50m Butterfly heats were filled with personal best swims and most of the swimmers looked very strong. Brynn Telenko swam her first A time in the Girls 9-10 Age Group which makes her eligible for the National training team and also for this summer’s Coral Spring meet. Aaron Rego was in a tight battle with Jessie Washington and Shannon Botelho in the Boys 13 -14 Age Group and his new PB makes him eligible for Coral Springs.
Botelho clocked 29.73, Washington touched the wall in 39.97 and Rego was clocked in at 30.07.
The Bermuda Amateur Swimming Association’s Schroders Summer Age Group Championships got underway at the BASA Pool.

First up was Maddy Moore in the 50m Backstroke Time Trial, Moore was looking to set her last record in the Girls 11 and 12 Age Group as her Birthday is tomorrow and she will have to set her sights on Girls 13-14 records.
The previous Girls 11 and 12 Age Group record which Moore set herself was 32.93, but Moore shattered that with a 30.76 which is faster than the current Girls 13-14 record and 1 hundredth of a second slower than the Girls 15-16 record.
