The biggest difference between Heilman’s old record and Mijatovic’s swim from today was the third 50. Today, Mijatovic was 0.67 seconds faster than Heilman was on that 50.
Mijatovic had previously sat at #2 all-time as he swam a 1:51.70 earlier this month at the George Haines Invitational. Today’s swim marked a personal best by 1.10 seconds.
Mijatovic now holds the 13-14 LCM 200, 400, and 800 freestyle NAG records. Just yesterday, he missed the 1500 free NAG record by a second as he swam a 15:32.18, just off of Jesse Vassallo’s record that stands at a 15:31.03 from 1976.
In addition to his 1500 free from yesterday, Mijatovic is also on the psych sheets in the 400 and 800 freestyles that will compete later this week in Indianapolis.
Dude looks like Grant Hackett
So proud of this kid. Getting to watch Luka and Shareef and Kelsey and all the kids I once coached is pure joy. All the best and all the support I have for them is never gonna stop. Make your dreams come true!
All four of you on different club teams now, huh
It happens…
And he’ll still be a teenager at the 2028 LA Olympics.

Bruh did the 200 just become his best event?
So he is entering high school this year?
I was swimming next to him and saw the psych sheet said 09 and I was shocked to realized 14 year olds are born in 2009. I got destroyed
Bro is the same age as the current World record.
Believe it or not, he just got off an 8 hour shift at the construction site right before this swim
