Arianna Vanderpool-Wallace blasted the field in the women’s 50-meter free at the Arena Pro Swim Series Charlotte.

Vanderpool-Wallace unleashed a 24.35 to win the splash-and-dash and move to third in the world this year. Only Cate Campbell (24.03) and Bronte Campbell (24.19) have been faster, while Ranomi Kromowidjojo also has a 24.35 from the Eindhoven Swim Cup.

Her effort nearly took down her lifetime best of 24.34 set at the Commonwealth Games last summer.

California’s Natalie Coughlin earned second overall in 25.03, while Georgia’s Chantal Van Landeghem placed third in 25.05.

SwimMAC’s Katie Meili (25.31), Canada’s Michelle Williams (25.50), Makos’ Amanda Kendall (25.57), Louisville’s Kelsi Worrell (25.79) and Lakeside’s Lauren Pitzer (25.81) also competed in the finale.

SwimMAC’s Madison Kennedy won the B final going away with a time of 25.25.
