ACC Championships, Day 3 Prelims: Olympian Showdown Set in 100 Fly
The women’s 100 butterfly at the ACC Championships on Thursday won’t include the ACC record holder or long-course world record holder. And yet, that only ups the intrigue.
Even without Gretchen Walsh in the event, the ACC Championships produced three NCAA A cuts Thursday morning, led by Claire Curzan’s time of 49.83. Tori Huske followed, with Alex Walsh third.
