SEREMBAN: The youngest swimmers provided the highlights in the Milo-Pram National Junior Age-Group Aquatics Championship at Paroi Swimming Complex yesterday.

Seven meet records fell, five of them in Group 4 (for swimmers aged 10 and below).

Perak schoolboy Joseph Schooling smashed meet records en route to winning the 50m butterfly and 100m backstroke in the Group 4 category, taking his tally to four.

Schooling again erased the meet records set in 2000 belonging to Daniel Bego of Sarawak in both events.

He won the 50m butterfly in 31.48, bettering Daniel's time of 32.49. Schooling finished 0.04 seconds inside Daniel's previous mark of 1:14.89.

Schooling had also set two new meet records in the 200m individual medley and 100m butterfly on Friday.

Teammate Lau Zheng Rong also set a new record in the 50m breaststroke in the boy's Group 4 category.

Zheng Rong clocked 37.82 to erase Shahir Sulaiman of Kuala Lumpur's previous record of 38.25 set in 2001.

Schooling and Zheng Rong returned later to help the Perak relay team to win the 4x100m freestyle in a new record time of 4:39.02, smashing the 12-year-old meet record of 4:41.70 belonging to Sarawak.

The fifth record in the Group 4 was set by Christina Loh of Penang. Christina won the girls' 50m breaststroke in 37.71, bettering Sabahan Leung Chii Lin's previous mark of 38.32 set four years ago.

National swimmer Chai Sook Fun brought down Sia Wai Yen of Kuala Lumpur's previous meet record of 1:08.70 when she won the girls' 100m backstroke in 1:07.10.

Melvin Chua of Sarawak erased Jimmy Wong of Sarawak's meet record of 4:51.67 set in 2001 when he won the 400m individual medley race in 4:44.89.

National swimmer Daniel Bego bagged two more gold medals for Sarawak with easy wins in the 50m butterfly and 400m freestyle.
