KUALA LUMPUR: Khiew Hoe Yean and Dhuha Zulkifry were the top performers at the Milo Age-Group Swimming Championships, which concluded today.
Although the 19-year-old Hoe Yean did not manage great times, he proved to be way ahead of his peers with yet another strong showing on the final day of the meet.
Hoe Yean was just uncatchable as he finished the three-day meet with a total of eight gold medals.
He came up tops in the boys' 17-25 age-group 200m freestyle race, touching home with a time of 1:50.49sec to finish ahead of national teammate Arvin Shaun Singh Chahal (1:54.23) and Terrence Ng (1:55.47) at the National Aquatic Centre in Bukit Jalil, today.
He also sprinted home in the 100m backstroke race, finishing with a time of 56.74, while Terrence (58.93) and Hoe Yean's brother Tze Yean (1:01.20) came second and third, respectively.
Additionally, Hoe Yean also showed that he's versatile in all disciples as he came first in the 400m individual medley race with a time of 4:28.40.
To round it off, Hoe Yean put up a strong anchor's performance to help the Ikan Bilis Swimming Club (IBSC) to the 4x100m freestyle relay title.
The team of Hoe Yean, Tze Yean, Yap Min Shun and Low Ken Ji touched home with a time 3:31.50, beating off the Amateur Swimming Association Sarawak (3:37.02) and Pade-Supersharkz Swimming Club (3:39.12), who finished second and third, respectively.
The four gold medals he won on Sunday was on top of the 100m freestyle, 400m freestyle, 1500m freestyle and 200m backstroke events that he won earlier.
The only drawback for Hoe Yean was that he did not meet any of the Sea Games standard in his favourite freestyle races.
Hoe Yean, who burst onto the scene with record-breaking performances at the Malaysian Open last year, only met the Sea Games qualifying mark in the 200m backstroke event.
Meanwhile, 13-year-old Dhuha also impressed as he clinched another three more wins - the 100m butterfly, 200m freestyle and the 4x100m freestyle relay.
That took his meet tally to seven and he is certainly another one to watch out for in the future.
Meanwhile, national women's swimmer Phee Jinq En won her pet event - the 100m breaststroke race.
But her time of 1:11.15 was not enough to beat the Sea Games mark of 1:10.70 and it was nowhere near her national record of 1:08.40 either.
