SYYDNEY, Australia, April 2. BROOKE Hanson (pictured) continued her brilliant form at this meet when she broke her own national record by 0.16 of a second to become only the fourth swimmer to go under the 31-second mark. Hanson touched in 30.92 to break the record she set just last month in Canberra.
Earlier the much-travelled 25-year-old Michelle Engelsman clocked a very impressive 24.83 to break Libby Lenton’s national standard in the 50 freestyle set in Indianapolis last April by 0.09 of a second. Engelsman recently returned from some time training with Gary Hall, Jr., at his Race Club in Florida having already set a PR 25.17 – until now the fastest time in the world for 2004 – during her stay in the US.
