On August 10, the twosome — along with Tiare Coker and Heather MacDougall, both freshmen at Crescenta Valley High School — participated in a swim meet at the Rose Bowl Aquatic Center. Their collective performance in the Girls 13-14 200-meter freestyle relay was 1:50.37, shattering the old record of 1:51.14. The same quartet also broke a two-year-old record in the 200-meter medley relay with the time of 2:01.67 — more than a second faster than the previous top time.
The group that keeps those records, Southern California Swimming, includes 18,000 swimmers ranging from San Luis Obispo to San Diego.
"We dreamed of breaking these records and worked hard in our practices to push ourselves to do our best," Kate says. "We practiced together and helped each other build confidence in our abilities as individuals and as a team."
