RICCIONE, Italy, June 6. LOIS Nochman was the only American to set a world record on Day 4 of the FINA Masters World Championships in Riccione, Italy, but there was no dearth of record-breaking this day as no fewer than eight Masters world marks bit the dust.<\/p>\n
100m butterfly<\/b>
\nSwimming in the women's 80-84 age group, Nochman took a hatchet, Lizzie Borden-style, to the old mark of 2:21.88 set by Germany's Gertrud Meerwald in 2000. When she was finished chopping, she had hacked more than 15 seconds off the old mark with her 2:06.55.<\/p>\n
Two other women and one man set 100 fly marks. In the 60-64 division, Britain's Judy Wilson slashed her own standard of 1:23.49 set earlier this year with a 1:17.34.<\/p>\n
Austria's Sylvia Neuhauser clocked 1:50.12 for a 75-79 record, lopping six seconds off June Krauser's 1:56.07 from 2001.<\/p>\n
The only other US swimmer to win was Z. Tusa, who clocked 1:05.11 to take the 25-29 race.<\/p>\n
For the men, Canada's John Van Buuren flew to a 50-54 record of 1:01.43, just under American Greg Shaw's 1:01.79 set last year.<\/p>\n
Three American men won their age groups: Tom Geiman, 55-59, 1:06.99; Tom Maine, 75-79, 1:42.47; and William Johnston, 85-89, 2:34.17.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, the winning times in the four youngest age groups were all 58s, with Latvia's A. Yakovlev, swimming in the 35-39 age group, turning in the fastest time at 58.10.<\/p>\n
50m breaststroke<\/b>
\nThree world records fell in the 50m breaststroke, with 1960 Japanese Olympian Yoshi Osaki setting a men's 65-69 mark of 35.56. His time broke the old mark of 36.35 set three years ago by countryman Hiroshi Kotegawa.<\/p>\n
For the women, former East German Olympian Sylvia Gerasch notched her second 35-39 mark, touching in 33.64, just under Caroline Krattli's 33.91 from 2001.<\/p>\n
Russia's Olga Kokorina scored her second 80-84 mark with a 54.44 effort, lowering her own standard of 55.97 from last year.<\/p>\n
No American woman and only two men took gold in the 50 breast. Jack Groselle continued his own personal gold rush, winning the 50-54 race in 32.20, while Pete Andersen annexed the 60-64 title in 35.56.<\/p>\n
200m backstroke<\/b>
\nGreat Britain's Lesley Wilde was the only swimmer to set a global mark in the 200m back and she did it by the slimmest of margins. Swimming in the 45-49 division, Wilde sliced 5-hundredths of a second off her world mark of 2:36.59 set earlier this year.<\/p>\n
One American woman and four men took gold in their respective age groups. Bunny Cederlund took the 80-84 division in 4:38.51.<\/p>\n
Jens Peter Berndt won the men's 40-44 contest in 2:17.32. In the 50-54 age group Fred Ferroggiaro was the victor in 2:27.31. Tod Spieker graabbed the gold for men 55-59 in 2:34.55. Paul Hutinger wrapped up the 80-84 age group in 3:30.76.<\/p>\n
