Nearly every individual Cub swimmer and relay improved upon their preliminary seeding at today’s CIF Prelim competition at Riverside Aquatics Complex. Most notably, the 400 Free Relay team consisting of Connor Lee ’19, Emmett Pernecky '19, Nolan Wang ’20 and Mark McCrary ’19 set a new CIF record in the event with a time of 3:01.33.

Coincidentally, the mark they broke was set by Lee, Pernecky, and Loyola back in 2017 (3:01.53). Both Lee and Pernecky were sophomores on that relay alongside alums Sean Lee ’17 and Andy Kim ’17, setting the record on May 13, 2017.
