TOMAS RODRIGUEZ BROKE 3 AMERICAN PARA SWIMMING RECORDS

GCST swimmer Tomas Rodriguez has broken his own American Record in the 200 short course meters butterfly.

Racing at the 15th annual Rowdy Gaines Masters Classic, one of the country’s biggest annual Masters meets, Tomas swam 2:39.50 in finals of the 200 fly. That knocks 17 seconds off his old American Record for the S9 group, which is a 2:56.47 that was set in November 2022.

Rodriguez also swam 5:05 in the 400 free, 2:56.26 in the 200 back (NEW AMERICAN RECORD), 2:45.97 in the 200 IM, and 1:12.62 in the 100 fly (NEW AMERICAN RECORD).

Outside of training, Rodriguez works as a full-time reporter for the Naples Daily News and the Fort Myers News-Press, part of the USA Today network.
