GREENSBORO – Brooklyn Snodgrass had perhaps the most impressive credentials of the championship final field in the 200 backstroke at the USA Swimming nationals, and perhaps that helped her hold on to win with a 1:51.22.<\/p>\n
The reigning NCAA champion likely felt the pressure from Carmel Swim Club’s Claire Adams, who was second with a lifetime best 1:51.87, dropping almost three seconds off her best time. Another high schooler, 16-year-old Erin Voss of Greater Holyoke, got third with a 1:51.95 to also beat her lifetime best by about three seconds.<\/p>\n
Clara Smiddy of Michigan, the top seed going into the race, faded to fourth with a 1:52.24. Indiana’s Kennedy Goss (1:52.41), Michigan’s Hannah Moore (1:54.50), Waves of Bloomington’s Grace Ariola (1:54.60) and Indiana’s Cynthia Pammett (1:55.34) rounded out the top eight.<\/p>\n
UCLA’s Madison White won the B final with a 1:53.68, just missing her lifetime best by two tenths. Nadine Laemmler was second in the heat with a 1:54.80 while Asia Seidt took third with a 1:55.14.<\/p>\n
Sydney Sell of Lakeside enjoyed a win in the C final with a 1:55.22, while Zulal Zeren’s 1:56.27 got her second in the heat. Emma Seiberlich of Phoenixville YMCA was third with a 1:56.69.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
