Iron Lady Katinka Hosszu doubled up with a sizzler in the women’s 100-meter back at the Arena Pro Swim Series Santa Clara.

Just minutes after winning the 200 fly, Hosszu returned with a near-Hungarian record time of 59.69.  That time is just off her fifth-ranked season best of 59.47 from the Charlotte stop, and her Hungarian mark of 59.36 from 2014.

California’s Elizabeth Pelton chased down second tonight with a time of 1:00.31, while Colorado Stars’ Missy Franklin wound up taking third overall in 1:00.65.

Franklin is swimming her first meet since turning professional following NCAAs in March, and has been open that she’s knocking off some cobwebs here in Santa Clara.

Mexico’s Fernanda Gonzalez Ramirez (1:01.41), Club Wolverine’s Ali Deloof (1:01.59), Erin Voss (1:01.63), Etienne Medeiros (1:02.09), Gisela Morales (1:02.19) and Tasija Karosas (1:02.56) finished fourth through ninth tonight.

Grand Canyon’s Iryna Glavnyk chased down the B final title with a time of 1:02.24.  North Carolina’s Hellen Moffitt turned in a second-place time of 1:02.48.
