There are few things in the sport of swimming that stay true year after year.

Cal swimming will place in the top two at NCAA’s
Emory women’s swimming will be national champions
Nathan Adrian will swim a 48 second in-season 100 free

It has become almost expected that Adrian will post a solid in-season 100 free at these Pro Swim Series meets. That did not change on Friday night in Mesa as Adrian posted a 48.84 to win the 100 free final.

Adrian finished ahead of fellow 2017 World Championship team member Michael Chadwick (49.17). Adrian is now 29 years of age and is still a force to be reckoned with in the world of swimming. That won’t change in 2018, even despite Caeleb Dressel breaking every barrier imaginable in the sport.

Bruno Blaskovic (50.01), Jesse Novak (50.69), Andrej Barna (51.01), Ryan Murphy (51.18), Matias Koski (51.35) and Scott Mcgillivary (51.52) also swam in the A-final.
