I dunno but she just took down the 100 back record by a half second too...
Was looking at her times earlier, because I know she has swum near us, but I didn't realize she was from Minnesota. Not sure how or why, but most recently she swam at Sectionals in North Carolina (Eastern Section of Southern Zone), along with a few team mates. At any rate, as I went though, I saw that she broke 1:00 in SCY in both fly and back...........at age 10. There's a 14 y/o in Raleigh who beat her in the 50 free in at the ESSZ meet I'm anxious to see in trials next year - she was first under 15 y/o to break 22 in the 50 free the following week at age group sectionals. Wouldn't be surprised if our back strokers next year were 15 and 18 years old. She didn't break a minute in those until she was 11, but she did it by 3-4 seconds. My daughter has swum against her in a few sectionals meets the past few years.
