Women’s 200 free

NCAP’s Katie Ledecky powered her way to the pool record in the women’s 200-meter free at the 2015 Arena Pro Swim Series Minneapolis.

Ledecky surged to a blazing time of 1:55.37.  That swim eclipsed the pool record of 1:55.82 set by Allison Schmitt back in 2011.

Ledecky’s time was just off her sizzling fourth-ranked season best of 1:55.16 from the World Championships as she continued to put her foot down as the best swimmer in the world.

Only Sarah Sjostrom (1:54.31), Femke Heemskerk (1:54.68) and Federica Pellegrini (1:55.00) have been faster this year.

Colorado Stars’ Missy Franklin put up a pretty strong 1:56.73 of her own to take second. That’s a second back of her sixth-ranked best of 1:55.49 from Worlds this summer as well.

Schmitt claimed the third spot on the podium with a time of 1:57.27.

Virginia’s Leah Smith (1:57.79), Saint Petersburg’s Melanie Margalis (1:58.11), NBAC’s Cierra Runge (1:59.15), California’s Camille Cheng (1:59.85) and Aggie’s Sarah Henry (2:01.15) also competed in the championship heat.

Mission Viejo’s Stephanie Peacock walked away with the B final victory with a time of 1:59.93 in what proved to be an incredibly close consolation heat.  Bulldog’s Shannon Vreeland took second in 2:00.04 with California’s Katie McLaughlin earning third in 2:00.14. Badger’s Lindsay Vrooman was also in the mix with a 2:00.17 as was NBAC’s Becca Mann with a 2:00.21.

Men’s 200 free

Trojan’s Conor Dwyer finished a second back of Michael Phelps’ pool record in the men’s 200-meter free at the 2015 Arena Pro Swim Series Minneapolis.

Dwyer hit the wall in a top time of 1:47.88 to collect the first-place prize. That’s a full second off Phelps’ pool record of 1:46.88 from 2011.  The time also finished a second back of Dwyer’s 15th-ranked season best of 1:46.64 from Worlds.

SwimMAC’s Ryan Lochte chased down second place with a time of 1:48.66, while Cardinals’ Joao De Lucca rounded out the podium with a third-place effort of 1:49.06.

SESI’s Giovanny Lima (1:49.87), Wisconsin’s Michael Weiss (1:50.12), Louisville’s Trevor Carroll (1:50.26), Louisville’s Matthias Lindenbauer (1:50.35) and Club Wolverine’s Bobby Hurley (1:50.36) finished fourth through eighth.

UBCD’s Markus Thormeyer touched out NBAC’s Michael Phelps in the consolation heat, 1:50.28 to 1:50.39.  That’s a rare finish for Phelps even though he’s coming down from intense altitude training in Colorado Springs. Yuri Kisil took third for UBCD in 1:51.00.

Women’s 100 breast

Saint Petersburg’s Melanie Margalis clipped SwimMAC’s Micah Lawrence for the women’s 100-meter breast title at the 2015 Arena Pro Swim Series Minneapolis.

Margalis edged Lawrence by the slimmest of margins, 1:07.44 to 1:07.45.  That put both on the outskirts of the top 20 times in the world this year, and a second back of Jessica Hardy’s pool record of 1:06.42 from 2011.

Louisville’s Andee Cottrell finished third overall in 1:08.14 with Breeja Larson taking fourth in 1:08.50.

Minnesota’s Rachel Munson (1:09.36), Penn State’s Melissa Rodriguez (1:09.63), Badger’s Emily McClellan (1:09.79) and Franko Jonker (1:09.80) also competed in the finale.

Emma Reaney, now back to Indiana after her time with SwimMAC, topped the B final in 1:09.64.  Toronto’s Martha McCabe (1:09.88) and T2’s Justine Bowker (1:09.91) placed second and third in the B final.

Men’s 100 breast

Missouri’s Sam Tierney was the surprise winner in the men’s 100-meter breaststroke at the 2015 Arena Pro Swim Series Minneapolis.

With bigger names like Cody Miller and Felipe Lima in the mix, Tierney still managed to get his hand on the wall first in 1:00.82. That broke the pool record of 1:01.02 set by Carlos Claverie this morning, which broke the previous mark of 1:01.13 set by Brendan Hansen in 2011.

Miller, who has a 59.51 to his credit from the Santa Clara stop of the Arena Pro Swim Series last season, finished second in 1:00.86. Claverie settled for third in 1:01.19.

Indie’s Michael Andrew missed the 15-16 national age group mark with a 1:01.25 for fourth.

Felipe Lima (1:01.35), Club Wolverine’s Richard Funk (1:01.66), Limmat Sharks’ Yannick Kaiser (1:01.82) and Longhorn’s Andrew Wilson (1:02.66) claimed fifth through eighth.

Bulldog’s Nic Fink topped the B final in a time of 1:01.82 with Wisconsin’s Nick Schafer close behind with a 1:01.96.  BJ Johnson wound up third in 1:02.24.

Women’s 100 fly

Louisville’s Kelsi Worrell popped her pool record from prelims with a sub-58 time in the women’s 100-meter fly at the 2015 Arena Pro Swim Series Minneapolis.

Worrell clinched the title with a time of 57.91, breaking her preliminary record of 58.03.  That swim, in turn, downed the long-standing pool record of 58.15 set by Jenny Thompson way back in 1999.

Worrell’s time fell just half-a-second shy of her third-ranked 57.24 from the Pan American Games this summer.  Only Sarah Sjostrom (55.64) and Jeanette Ottesen (57.04) have been faster this year.

California’s Dana Vollmer, the former world record holder in this event prior to taking a sabbatical to have a child, proved she’s back in shape with a scorching 58.07 to move to 19th in the world.

California’s Noemie Thomas hit the wall third in a time of 58.23 with Trojan’s Kendyl Stewart earning fourth in 58.44.

SESI’s Daynara De Paula (58.84), Mason Makos’ Amanda Kendall (58.93), SoFlo’s Claire Donahue (59.14) and California’s Farida Osman (59.14) also put up times in the A final.

Schroeder Y’s Hannah Saiz took the B final in 59.61 with California’s Katie McLaughlin joining her under 1:00 with a 59.88.

Men’s 100 fly

Phoenix’s Giles Smith downed a stacked men’s 100-meter fly final at the 2015 Arena Pro Swim Series Minneapolis.

Smith raced his way to a winning time of 52.57, just a bit off Kohei Kawamoto’s pool record of 51.71 from 2008. There’s a bit of irony there in that Kawamoto swam for the previous iteration of the Phoenix Swim Club called BEST before the club disassociated itself with Brophy in Phoenix.

Canyons’ Santo Condorelli picked up silver with a time of 52.58, while superstar Michael Phelps snared third overall in 52.99 just days after the release of a tell-all article in Sports Illustrated.

Club Seminole’s Pavel Sankovich (53.25), Tucson Ford’s Masa Kishida (53.48), SwimMAC’s Matt Josa (54.09) and Indie’s Michael Andrew (55.65) also swam in the finale.

SwimMAC’s Ryan Lochte was disqualified.

Santa Clara’s Kyler Van Swol topped the consolation heat in a time of 53.51 with Clovis’ Carl Weigley claiming second in 53.85.

Women’s 400 IM

Open water star Becca Mann of NBAC cruised to victory in the women’s 400-meter IM at the 2015 Arena Pro Swim Series Minneapolis.

Mann, who initially trailed IM veteran Caitlin Leverenz, overtook the field and extended her lead until she won in 4:37.04. That time vaulted her to 12th in the world rankings and crushed the previous pool record of 4:40.51 set by Katie Hoff back in 2011.

Leverenz, fresh off some cash winnings on the FINA World Cup tour, collected some more money tonight with a second-place 4:39.10.  That’s well off her sixth-ranked season best of 4:35.46 from the Pan American Games, but more than enough to win money tonight.

Leverenz wasn’t even slated to compete in the A final after finishing ninth, but Maya DiRado’s scratched opened the door for her to make some noise.

NCAP’s Katie Ledecky, the best freestyler on the planet, became the first person to win a pair of medals tonight with a 4:39.18 for third overall.

Minnesota’s Brooke Zeiger (4:42.49), Gator’s Elizabeth Beisel (4:43.12), SwimMAC’s Cammile Adams (4:44.07), Aggie’s Sarah Henry (4:45.35) and UBCD’s Emily Overholt (4:45.58) finished fourth through eighth.

Vietnam’s Vien Nguyen took down the consolation heat title in 4:45.15 with Trojan’s Haley Anderson earning second in 4:45.37.

Men’s 400 IM

NBAC’s Chase Kalisz outlasted SwimMAC’s Tyler Clary for the men’s 400-meter IM win at the 2015 Arena Pro Swim Series Minneapolis.

Kalisz, who battled with Clary throughout most of the race, pulled away down the stretch with a 4:18.50.  That’s a full eight seconds back of his fourth-ranked season best of 4:10.05 from Worlds, but more than enough for the win tonight.

Clary, meanwhile picked up second-place honors with a time of 4:21.01.  His best time this year is a fifth-ranked 4:11.71 also from Worlds.

Princeton’s Corey Okubo rounded out the podium with a third-place time of 4:23.89.

Gator’s Sebastien Rousseau (4:25.93), Louisville’s Nolan Tesone (4:28.26), Minnesota’s Jakub Maly (4:29.00), Purdue’s Guillermo Blanco (4:29.65) and Wisconsin’s Michael Weiss (4:31.23) comprised the rest of the A final.

Club Wolverine’s Kyle Whitaker captured the B final win in 4:26.24 with Gator’s Dan Wallace taking second in 4:27.29.
