Sarasota took home the 2016 YMCA Nationals combined team title after a week of swimming in which ten YMCA national records fell. The Sharks scored 643 points over the course of the week as Middle Tyger tallied 621.5 to finish runner up. Lead by four event winner Meghan Small, York was victorious on the women’s side, while Sarasota won for the men.
Small set two national record over the course of the week. The first of the 17 year old’s records fell when she won the 200 backstroke in a 1:51.56, just ahead of runner up Kaitlin Harty of North Shore in the 1:52.60. Middle Tyger’s Ali Galyer finished third in 1:55.09.
Small also reset the national standard in the 100 breaststroke with a 1:00.24. Her other individual titles this week came in the 200 and 400 IM. She won the 200 IM in 1:55.86, over four seconds ahead of second place Galyer, while in the 400 Small finished in 4:07.29, four seconds ahead of the field, yet four seconds shy of her own national record.
Three event winner Courtney Harnish came up just shy of her own national records in all three of her title winning swims, but was still another key to York’s success.  The 16 year old won the 200 freestyle in 1:46.12, ahead of Galyer (1:48.31) and Harty (1:48.42). In the 500 freestyle she was first in 4:43.98. Harnish won the 200 butterfly in 1:56.92, over two seconds ahead of the field.
