Club Wolverine’s Ali DeLoof held off Kentucky’s Asia Seidt to win the 100 backstroke.

DeLoof finished in 1:00.38, using her strong start to hang on. Seidt was a half-second faster on the back half but it wasn’t quite enough, finishing in 1:00.57.

Phoenix Swim Club’s Emi Moronuki was third (1:00.65), followed by Kentucky’s Bridgette Alexander (1:01.70).

Kentucky had three in the final as Ali Galyer finished seventh in 1:02.33.
