The second full morning of the 2019 Speedo Junior Nationals from Palo Alto, California will have six events on hand for Wednesday morning’s session. The 200 back, 100 free and 400 IM will take place today with some of the best young up-and-coming swimmers on the heat sheets ready to make their mark.
Alexandra Crisera is the top seed in the 200 back as she will look to defend her title she won last year at Speedo Juniors. The California native will be headed to Stanford in the fall and she is seeded first this morning ahead of Summer Smith and Cora Dupre.

Samantha Pearson will swim in the final heat of the 100 free as she is seeded ahead of Miranda Heckman and Grace Felner. Heckman will be headed to the University of Texas this fall.
