Carmel Boys Destroy National High School Record in 200-Yard Medley Relay

Performance of the Week, Sponsored by LumaLanes

Racing at the Indiana High School Championships, Carmel High School destroyed the national scholastic record in the 200-yard medley relay when it clocked a performance of 1:26.88. That time not only bettered the overall high school record, set by the Baylor School at 1:27.74 in 2014, it broke Carmel’s public-school national record of 1:27.94, set in 2020.

Sean Sullivan led off on the backstroke leg with a split of 21.82 and was followed on the breaststroke leg by Ryan Malicki, who checked in with a split of 24.18. Butterfly duties were handled by Aaron Shackell, who covered his 50 yards in 20.86, while Christopher Holmes closed out the relay with a freestyle split of 20.02.

Carmel, coached by Chris Plumb, has long been known as a national-powerhouse program, with its girls team recently claiming its latest state championship. At last summer’s United States Olympic Trials, Carmel products Drew Kibler and Jake Mitchell earned spots on the Team USA squad that competed at the Olympic Games in Tokyo.

Carmel easily rolled to another team title.
