IRVINE, California, August 9.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a TIE! \u00a0Trojan\u2019s Jessica Hardy and SwimMAC\u2019s Micah Lawrence turned in a pair of sizzling swims with times of 1:06.51. \u00a0The two are now tied for sixth in the world rankings, with both improving on 1:06s as Hardy was seventh with a 1:06.86 and Lawrence had a 1:06.97 season best.<\/p>\n

Aggie\u2019s Breeja Larson had to turn on the jets down the stretch as she took third in 1:06.73. \u00a0That swim pushed her up to eighth in the world rankings and could give Team USA a striking threesome headed to Pan Pacs if the team winds up taking the top three.<\/p>\n

SwimMAC\u2019s Emma Reaney, the American record holder in the 200-yard breaststroke, missed a chance for the team with a fourth-place 1:06.74 to take ninth in the world, while her teammate Katie Meili earned fifth in 1:07.44.<\/p>\n

Newburgh\u2019s Lilly King (1:08.22), Tennessee\u2019s Molly Hannis (1:08.82) and Louisville\u2019s Andee Cottrell (1:09.10) also competed in the finale.<\/p>\n

Alabama\u2019s Kaylin Burchell put up a 1:08.65 to win the B final, while Stanford\u2019s Katie Olsen finished second in 1:08.80. \u00a0Emily McClellan wound up third in 1:08.91.<\/p>\n

Bethany Galat tops C final in 1:09.17. \u00a0Roadrunner\u2019s Jorie Caneta took second in 1:09.41 with Aquajet\u2019s Olivia Anderson earning third in 1:09.43.<\/p>\n
