2017 World Championship gold medalist Chase Kalisz swam a solid 4:14.08 on Thursday night at the TYR Pro Swim Series at Mesa as he won comfortably ahead of fellow 2016 Olympian Josh Prenot 4:08 earlier this year(4:19.56). Kalisz is usually known as a solid in-season swimmer as he was a in Atlanta.

Prenot was second ahead of Louisville’s Daniel Sos (4:22.98) and Pitchfork’s Jarod Arroyo (4:23.75). Prenot was a 400 IM’er in his days at Cal, but has since disappeared from the event after he scratched out of the final at the 2016 Olympic Trials to focus on other events. Prenot could challenge for a spot on the Pan Pac roster this summer if he applies himself for the event.

Carlos Claverie (4:26.57), Nguyen Son (4:34.51), Tarna Tuitama (4:34.73) and Daniel Kober (4:35.06) also swam in the A-final.
