Lezak, Moses, Yamada, Klochkova on Fire on Day One of New York World Cup

By Phillip Whitten

NASSAU, LONG ISLAND, New York, January 30. THE swimming was fast and the competition furious tonight, the first day of the two-day FINA World Cup 7 meet at the Nassau Aquatic Center on Long Island.

America's Jason Lezak and Japan's Sachiko Yamada led the way as both just missed setting world records. Lezak, gradually establishing his credentials as the USA's best and most consistents sprinter, blazed a 46.98 for the 100 meter freestyle, just off Alex Popov's ten year-old short course world mark of 46.74. South Africa's Roland Schoeman was second in 47.53, the only other man to dip under 48 seconds.

Yamada swam the 800 free in 8:13.66 to win by 10 seconds. The time was a World Cup record and just missed the global standard of 8:13.35 she set in Japan less than a week ago.

Ed Moses continued to obliterate the strongest fields that can be assembled. Tonight he recorded consecutive victories #10 and 11, first taking the 50 breast in 26.85, with Schoeman second again, in 27.21. Then he uncorked a brilliant 2:04.17 to win the 200m breast by over five seconds. The time, though well off the 2:02.92 world record he set earlier this month in Berlin, is still almost two seconds faster than any other swimmer has gone for the distance.

After the race, Moses announced he plans to bypass the US National Championships in Florida in February.

Ukraine's Yana Klochkova challenged one of the oldest women's short course records in the books, the 200 IM mark of 2:07.79 set by the USA's Allison Wagner in December of 1993. Klochkova's 2:09.79 was precisely two seconds off Wagner' resilient record.

Canadian Olympian Joanne Malar was second in 2:11.63. Comebacker Shelly Ripple-Johnston, who was married last month, was sixth in 2:14.04, just ahead of Gabrielle Rose, a 2000 Olympian in this event, seventh in 2:14.17.

Two other swimmers beside Moses were double winners today: veterans Chad Carvin and Jenny Thompson. Carvin took the difficult 400 IM – 400 freestyle double. In the medley, Carvin clocked 4:11.78, with Japan's Susumu Tabuchi second in 4:12.51 and 17 year-old Bradley Alley of Barbados third in 4:13.84. Later Carvin came back to swim an even more impressive 3:40.87 to take the 400 free by over three seconds.

Thompson, a second-year medical school student, tied Slovakia's Martina Moravcova in the 100 fly, as both women touched in 57.87. Rachel Komisarz was third in 58.62 while Ripple-Johnston was fourth in 58.79.

Thompson notched a second win with her 24.60 in the 50 free, defeating Britain's Alison Sheppard, 24.81, and Brazil's Flavia Delaroli, third in a South American record 24.83.

Randall Bal went up against the best in the 100 back and came away a winner. Gaining confidence with every win on the World Cup tour, Bal — the former Stanford star — scored his biggest win by taking the 100 back in 52.08 seconds. Olympic champ and long course WR-holder Lenny Krayzelburg was second (52.43) and former short course WR-holder Neil Walker third (52.83).

Walker came back later to win the 100 IM easily in 53.67 seconds, about a second slower than Thomas Rupprath's global standard of 52.58.

Roland Schoeman finally won an event. He blazed the 50 fly in 23.04, ahead of Ben Michaelson (23.31) and not far off the WR of 22.74.
