KINGSTON, Jamaica, July 4 – THE SECOND day of the CISC saw an amazing 12 meet records fall and 4 Olympic B standards, per reports by Anthony Morrison-Vincent.<\/p>\n
Trinidad and Tobago led the way with 3 records, as 7 different island nations had meet marks. Janelle Atkinson (Jamaica), George Bovell (Trinidad and Tobago), Kiera Aitken (Bermuda) and Nicholas Rees (Bahamas) accounted for the Olympic standards.<\/p>\n

Pan -American 200 Freestyle champion Bovell lead from the beginning, splitting 54+ at the halfway mark. He seemed to be in cruise control when he slapped the pads in 1:51.54, well under the Olympic B-standard of 1:55.08 and the meet record of 1:54.97.<\/p>\n
Kiera Aitken swam 1:05.25 in the 100 Backstroke, crushing her old meet record of 1:06.71 and slipping under the 1:05.54 B standard.<\/p>\n
