Chelsea Shaul jumped on the record setting bandwagon of training
partner Lindsay Delmar at the recent Paul Bergen meet in Portland
Oregon. Chelsea broke the 13-14 Club record in the 50Fl swimming a
29.71. The previous record of 29.87 was set by Liz Hendrick in
2002.
Training partner Lindsay Delmar continued on her record setting
performances last weekend. Lindsay broke her 50 and 100 fly
Provincial and club records swimming a 27.21 and 59.45. She went on
to break the 15-17 Provincial Record in the 200 fly with a 2:12.06.
The previous mark was 2:12.38 set in 1989 by Maria Gaudin. Just to
put an exclamation point on her weekend she decided to add a
freestyle event to the record streak. Lindsay took off 5 seconds in
her 400Fr to swim a 4:14.55 eclipsing the long standing record of
4:14.90 set in 1989 by Erin Holland.
The Paul Bergen meet came to an end with all swimmers achieving
personal best times. The swimmers combined to earn 4 gold, 1 silver
and 5 bronze individual medals at the meet. The largest individual
medal tally in recent history for our team. Our younger swimmers
attending performed on demand throughout the meet and earned some
great experience while our older swimmers struck gold! After the
meet, Lindsay Delmar is ranked first in Canada in the 100fly and
David Dimitrov is ranked first in the 400IM!
