Crean Lutheran&#8217;s Ella Eastin swam an impressive 200 IM in prelims, potentially setting her on track for a national high school record.<\/p>\n<p>After clocking a 1:58.44 in the girl&#8217;s 200 IM during prelims, Ella Eastin of Crean Lutheran will be one to watch. While she added onto her original seed time of 1:53.90, a time that is only .08 seconds off the national high school record of 1:53.82, she still leads the competition by two seconds. Karli Thuen of Jserra is currently seeded second with a 2:00.46 but after splitting faster than Eastin on both the fly and free legs of the IM could provide some competition for Eastin.<\/p>\n<p>Palo Alto&#8217;s Grace Zhao and Jserra&#8217;s Kaitlyn Albertoli will be battling for the top spot tomorrow in the girl&#8217;s 50 free. Zhao touched in 22.86 during prelims with Albertoli finishing close behind with a 22.89.<\/p>\n<p>Zhao and Eastin kept it close in prelims for the girl&#8217;s 100 breast, but Zhao was able to pull it together in the second 50 to claim the win and the top seed. Zhao touched with a 1:02.09 while Eastin finished in 1:02.11.<\/p>\n<p>Bryce Mefford of Oak Ridge and Liam McCloskey of LaCosta Canyon are seeded first and second going into finals for the boy&#8217;s 200 free. Mefford (1:37.48) leads McCloskey (1:37.91) with a slim .43 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Of the top eight in the boy&#8217;s 50 free, all but one are under the 21 second mark. Albert Gwo of Los Altos leads the competition with a 20.08, while Northgate&#8217;s Mason Tittle is seeded second with a 20.58.<\/p>\n<p>Mefford is also currently leading the boy&#8217;s 100 back. While Mefford is currently seeded with a 48.54, Benjamin Ho of St. Francis is close behind with a 48.91.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this morning\u00a0Olivia Rosendahl of Immaculate Heart swept the diving competition with a stunning 517.50 points. Mikaela Lujan of Nevada Union claimed second place with 492.85, while Mimi Lin of Palo Alto finished third with 489.85.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/results\/2015-california-boys-and-girls-high-school-state-championships-live-results\/high-school\/2015\/May\/22\" target=\"_blank\">2015 California Boys and Girls High School State Championships, Live Results &#8211; Results<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Agon is the proud sponsor of all high school coverage (recruiting, results, state championships, etc.) on SwimmingWorld.com.
