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

Teri McKeever had to be ecstatic after the A final of the 100-meter back as the California Golden Bears went 1-2-3 in the event. \u00a0Missy Franklin, who won her fifth straight national title in the event, overcame a bit of a tough start to win the event with a blistering 59.38. \u00a0That time shot her to third in the event, behind only Emily Seebohm (58.92) and Mie Nielsen (59.36). \u00a0That sets up an epic battle in Australia between Franklin and Seebohm at Pan Pacs.<\/p>\n

Rachel Bootsma then clipped teammate Elizabeth Pelton, 1:00.71 to 1:00.76, for second-place honors. It\u2019s an amazing finish for the U.S. to see that it was robbed of during NCAAs when Franklin wound up focusing on the freestyle events during her freshman year.<\/p>\n

SwimMAC\u2019s Kathleen Baker hit the wall fourth in 1:00.90 with Bulldogs\u2019 Olivia Smoliga capturing fifth in 1:01.08.<\/p>\n

Aquakids\u2019 Clara Smiddy (1:01.37), Fresno\u2019s Cheyenne Coffman (1:01.57) and Club Wolverine\u2019s Ali Deloof (1:02.21) claimed sixth through eighth to close out the championship finishes.<\/p>\n

California\u2019s Melanie Klaren turned up the heat down the stretch to win the B final in 1:01.81. \u00a0Longhorn\u2019s Sarah Denninghoff finished third in 1:01.99 with Missouri\u2019s Hannah Stevens earning third in 1:02.07.<\/p>\n

Dynamo\u2019s Kylie Stewart powered her way to a win in the C final with a 1:01.62, just edging Carmel\u2019s Claire Adams (1:01.63) in the process. \u00a0Y-Sparta\u2019s Danielle Galyer finished third in 1:02.53.<\/p>\n
