USA Nationals, Day 4: It’s Breeden Again, This Time in the Women’s 100 Fly

By Phillip Whitten

IRVINE, Calif., August 6. WINNING can be addictive. Do it once and you crave the sensation again and again. Just ask 16 year-old Elaine Breeden, who was the upset winner of the 200-meter fly earlier in these national championships.

Tonight, though she qualified first, she was the upset winner of the 100-meters butterfly in yet another personal best time, 59.20. She needed just about every hundredth of a second of that PR too..

Third at the 50 in 28.10 behind Auburn’s Demerae Christianson (27.97) and Dana Kirk (28.06), the Kentucky kid uncorked a devastating kick to overtake her elders. Kirk finished second in 59. 31, Christianson was third in 59.67 while medley queen Katie Hoff placed fourth in 1:00.22.
