Allie Davis touched second in 2:00.10 with Stanzi Moseley taking third overall in 2:01.42.

Trojan went 1-2-3 in the men’s 200-meter free. Cristian Quintero won in 1:49.09 with Reed Malone placing second in 1:50.74. Mads Glaesner checked in third in 1:51.00.

Canadian Tera Van Beilen hit the wall in 2:30.04 to win the women’s 200-meter breast. Kelsey Wog claimed second in 2:31.61 with Riley Scott earning third in 2:32.82.

Nitro’s Will Licon crushed the field in the men’s 200-meter breast with a 2:12.92. Kosuke Kitajima, a multiple Olympic gold medalist in the event, took second in 2:16.67. Terrapins’ Sean Mahoney snared third in 2:16.86.

Canyons’ Abbey Weitzeil smashed the women’s 50-meter free field with a 25.19 during finals after clocking a 25.15 during prelims. Moseley earned her second medal of the night with a second-place 26.01, while Aquazot’s Eva Merrell touched third in 26.07.

Great to see Kitajima in the mix, but I thought he had already retired?!!

McLaughlin setting herself up to contend for relay positions next summer, and I can’t wait to see what she can do in Kazan this summer as well.

Mclaughlin seems to have that great 200 free/fly combo and she’s still young too. USA women 4×200 free line up is getting more and more insane.
