(Lewisburg, PA) Yesterday was a record-setting day for the North Allegheny High School swimming team as the school set a new PIAA record for the 200-yard medley relay. North Allegheny’s swimming team set a new record of 1:29:19, beating the previous record of 1:29:74, which was set up by Upper St. Clair back in 2015. The swimmers from North Allegheny that won gold yesterday are the defending PIAA 3A Champions, and they find themselves in first place at this year’s PIAA swimming championships after the first day of events at Bucknell University. North Allegheny’s new state record also beat their own school record of 1:30:55, which was set back in 2017. Consolations and final rounds for the boys will take place starting at 4:30 p.m. this afternoon with the girls’ consolations and finals starting tonight at 7:30 p.m.
