CVST Places Two Swimmers in the Florida Top 10
The great thing about rankings in swimming is that there is no subjectivity. They are all based off of times. Each year from September to August USA Swimming recognizes the Top 10 performances in each age-group in each event. These rankings are updated as times come in from meets around the country. Using the same data base Florida Swimming also ranks its swimmers. As of the writing of this article, April 2nd, the Carrollwood Village Swim Team has placed two swimmers in the Florida Top 10. Jayden Repak leads the Carrollwood swimmers with multiple 11-year-old rankings. Jayden ranks first in the 1650 yard Freestyle (19:34.86), 2nd in the 50 yd Breaststroke (32.00) and 400 yd IM (5:01.59), 3rd in the 100 yd Breaststroke (1:10.15), 4th in the 1000 yd Freestyle (11:18.31), 5th in the 500 yd Freestyle (5:26.46), 7th in the 100 yd IM (1:08.34), and 8th in the 50 yd Butterfly (29.77).
Kaitlyn Labella also ranks 4th in the 12-year-old 1650 yard Freestyle (19:49.28).
At the time of Jayden’s 50 and 100 yard Breaststroke Rankings swum in February at the Florida Swimming Age-Group Championships his time in the 50 yard Breaststroke ranked 8th in the country and 12th nationally in the 100 yard Breaststroke. Since then, Jayden has turned 12 and lowed his 50 yard Breaststroke (31.80) time by winning the Florida Swimming v Florida Gold Coast All Star meet, as he broke into the Florida Swimming 12 year old rankings in 7th while his 11 year old national ranking fell to 12th.
