Micaela Jasmine Mojdeh put on another big show, winning six gold medals in the recent 2019 Age-Group Champs Swim Meet in Tokyo, Japan.
Mojdeh dominated the girls 11-12 division as she ruled the 100-meter breaststroke (1:18.34), 100m butterfly (1:04.72), 200m Individual Medley (2:30.77), 100m Individual Medley (1:10.19), 50m butterfly (39.70) and 200m freestyle (2:13.01), all area records.
She considered her 200m freestyle win as the most significant considering that the event was not her specialty.
“Medyo mataas pa nga po ang mga time niya dahil siguro po pagod na dahil panglimang tournament nap o niya ito this year. Pero talagang marami siyang ginulat sa 200m freestyle. Hindi naman niya ito madalas languyin kaya nang matalo niya yung mga lehitimong free styler, nasabi na lang nila na very good strategy daw,” said Mojdeh’s mother Joan, who served as team manager of the PSL Team.
Last month, the 12-year old Immaculate Heart of Mary College-Paranaque standout bagged eight gold medals and set seven meet records in the Beijing All-Star Swimming Championships at the Water Cube.
