MESA – Ryan Hoffer, swimming for Chaparral High School at the Arizona High School Championships, clipped his own 15-16 U.S. National Age Group record in the 50-yard free.
Hoffer, 16, scorched the splash-and-dash with a 19.53 to win the finale as a sophomore, well ahead of Grady Ottomeyer’s second-place time of 21.29.
The performance undercut Hoffer’s previous national age group record of 19.54 by the slimmest of margins.
Hoffer then won the 100-yard free in 43.20. That time just missed his 15-16 U.S. National Age Group record of 43.13 from last year.
Swimming World will have official on-demand video of the races.
Wow! That is once in a generation talent right there.
