IBSC swimmers achieved best outings in 31st SEA Games 2022 in Hanoi, Vietnam

Congratulations to IBSC swimmers who have achieved best times in their debut outing to 31st SEA Games 2022 in Hanoi last week.

Steve Khiew Hoe Yean won GOLD in his 200free event with a new PB of 

1:47.81 seeing him beat rival Singapore and Viet favourites.

Steve missed out on gold by touch only in his pet event of 200m backstroke, and has to be contented with a silver with a time of 2:01.67

For the whole games, Steve hauled 5 medals in 5 events he participated completing his colourful prize  collections. His medals were from the following events:

200 free - Gold (1:47.81, PB)

400 free - Silver (3:52.03)

200backstroke - Silver (2:01.67)

800 free - Bronze (8:06.71)

4x200m free relay -Silver (7:19.75, National Record) 

Bryan Leong did the Club proud by sprinting to a new national record in 50 free event, previously held by  Keith Lim, also IBSC swimmer, with a new time of 23.09

Meanwhile, Sebastian Soon returned into good form to better his PBs in the long distance event of 1500free and 800 free, both with a seasonal best PBs of 15:39.87 and 8:12.64 respectively.

Congrats to the trio! Hope next SEA Games we will have more IBSC members joining the MAS Team for more golden achievements.

Well Done!
