After an eventful day four of the 2016 U.S. Olympic Trials, day five displayed the rise of rookies and the return of veterans in the the women’s 200 butterfly, men’s 200 breast and men’s 100 free.

Cammile Adams and Hali Flickinger qualified for Rio in the fly, and Josh Prenot upset Kevin Cordes with a blistering 200 breaststroke. But Caeleb Dressel also emerged that day, marking the beginning of his career as one of the USA’s top sprinters.

Swimming World is digging into the archives this week to recap all these great swims and intense moments from the 2016 U.S. Olympic Team Trials. Splashbacks from day 1day 2day 3 and day 4 are also available.
