Earlier in the weekend, Diehl broke the 200 freestyle<\/a> national age group record in short course yards with a 1:36.75. The swim passed Destin Lasco<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>on the all-time list, who held the former NAG record at 1:38.24. Diehl\u2019s best time was a 1:40.01 that he swam earlier this year in March as he sat 25th all-time in the 13-14 age group.<\/p>\n

In the process, he passed some pretty big names including three-time Olympian\u00a0Ian Crocker<\/strong> and US national champ\u00a0Maxime Rooney<\/strong>, as well as Lasco, who is currently a freshman at Cal.<\/p>\n
