William is a swimmer from Australia, a collegiate competitor, whose official competitive record spans 9 seasons and 62 meets.
His recorded career begins in 2015 in Mobile, where he raced the 100 individual medley in 1:21.96. He started out alongside Tiger Aquatics (LA).
His signature event is the 200 individual medley, the event he has raced the most, followed by the 200 freestyle and 100 freestyle. Individual medley is where his specialisation lies (44 meets), while freestyle appears in more meets (58 meets and 177 recorded swims spread across 9 different distances) because he races it across the full distance range rather than as a main event.
His fastest 200 individual medley stands at 2:09.98, set in long course (50 m) at Speedo Sectionals - Austin.
The record runs unbroken from 2015 to 2023: 9 consecutive seasons without a single missing year. 2022 is the busiest season on record, with 88 verified individual swims.
Those meets span 12 different venues (Baton Rouge, Sulphur, New Orleans and Shreveport…). He has raced for 6 clubs, led by Southern Methodist University, Tiger Aquatics (LA), Louisiana Swimming and Crawfish Aquatics.
Latest competition: Louisiana Senior State Championships in Shreveport, on July 16, 2023, with 1 swim: 2:13.22 in the 200 backstroke, all in long course (50 m) and 1 PB improvement. He closes this record with 35 current event personal bests and 226 all-time PB improvements, across 394 verified official swims in competitions governed by Masters Australia.
