Boys' sprint relay record swum at region lasted only two weeks. Even on second shave/rest, they dropped another half second to 1:32.97. The 400 f.r. dropped four seconds and made it onto the Top Ten.

The girls' relay added a bit in Austin, so their record stands at 1:44.34 - one tenth faster than '95 gals.
