Navya, who etched one national record (1500 metres) and two meet records (800M, 400M) -- all in the freestyle category -- claimed the corresponding girls’ top spot with 635 points.

BAC’s Prajwal KS logged 35 points to take the individual honours in boys’ Group II while Sneha T took the girls’ Group II individual title with 635 points after chalking up one national record (50M freestyle) and two state records (100M butterfly, 100M freestyle).
KC Reddy Swim Centre pulled off an upset victory in boys’ Group I 4x100M medley, getting the better of BAC ‘A’. While the KCR stopped the clock at 4:18.20, BAC ‘A’ came in second at 4:20.18.

KCR started strongly by putting a good distance between them and BAC ‘A’ in backstroke, and followed it up with an equally good performance in breaststroke.
BAC ‘A’ narrowed down the distance in the butterfly leg through Aaron, but KCR managed to hold on to their advantage.

Gagan AP tried his best to reel in Akshay Krishna in the final freestyle leg, but the latter touched in first for a fine win for KCR.
