ANN ARBOR, Michigan, September 28. WHILE Indiana earned a bit of attention with a sneaky shot at the newly-created short course meter relay records, Michigan didn’t take long to go over the top in a pair of the events at its Water Carnival today.<\/p>\n
Head coach Mike Bottom, who is one of the top coaches in the country when it comes to the PR-pushed records, engineered two more global marks this afternoon.<\/p>\n
The Wolverines first knocked down the mixed gender 200-meter medley relay record when Ali DeLoof, Angie Chokran, John Wojciechoski and Bruno Ortiz blitzed the event in 1:43.75. That time smashed the record the Hoosiers clocked with a 1:49.87 earlier this week. Although, it will not count as the world record as Ortiz is not American. <\/p>\n
Iowa’s second-place team of Dustin Rhoads, Andrew Marciniak, Haley Gordon and Olivia Kabacinski managed to put together a full one-nation team with a 1:47.61 that beat IU’s previous mark.<\/p>\n
While the time will be posted as a FINA world record in the event, it’s far from the fastest time ever recorded in the race. At last December’s short course European championships, France posted a 1:38.74 with a foursome that included Jeremy Stravius, Florent Manaudou, Melanie Henique and Anna Santamans.<\/p>\n
