However, McCann rebounded in freestyle, posting a winning time of 2:02.41 to out-touch Mackenzie Paddington of the Campbell River Killer Whales, who earned silver in 2:02.76.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was definitely happy with how I came back after the 100 back,\u201d McCann said. \u201cThe time was pretty good considering I haven&#8217;t rested for this meet, although I have had a best time under two [minutes]. I was really strong in the last 50 metres and that helped me out-touch [Paddington] at the wall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>McCann and her coach, Kevin Thorburn, have their sights set on the FINA World Junior Swimming Championships that will be staged in Singapore from Aug. 25-30. McCann stacks up as a medal hopeful in 200-m backstroke, where she posted an impressive result of 2:11.20 on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;m definitely feeling good about going to the junior worlds,\u201d McCann said. \u201cI think I should have a good shot at a medal. I&#8217;m also going to try to work on the 400 freestyle on Sunday and next weekend [at the Canadian Swimming Championships in Pointe-Claire, Que.] to see if I can move up and get a shot at swimming that event at Junior Worlds as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In 16- to 18-year-old girls 100-m backstroke, Newmarket Stingrays&#8217; Danielle Hanus and Ingrid Wilm of Calgary&#8217;s Cascade Swim Club had a riveting duel for the gold. Hanus prevailed in 1:01.80 to edge Wilm (1.01.85) by five-hundredths of a second, while McCann touched at 1:03.44.<\/p>\n<p>James Guest of Baie d&#8217;Urfe, Que., made his penultimate race of his Age Group phase count by capturing boys 17- and 18-year-old 200-m breaststroke. The representative of Pointe-Claire Swim Club, which will host next week&#8217;s Canadian Swimming Championships, touched the wall at 2:17.81 to shade namesake and friendly rival James Dergousoff (2:19.63) of Chena Swim Club, who competed at last month&#8217;s Pan Am Games in Toronto.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJames [Dergousoff] and I have been racing each other for six years now \u2013 it&#8217;s always a good race when he is in the pool,\u201d said Guest, who will wrap up his week by competing in 200-m individual medley on Sunday. \u201cAs far as the time I would like to have been faster, but I am happy with it for today &#8230; I just got back from the World University Games [in South Korea], with not much time to prepare in between \u2013 just two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a good swim for right now and I&#8217;m really looking forward to next week at the nationals [Canadian Swimming Championships],&#8221; Guest added. &#8220;Hopefully I can use being at home there to my advantage. I&#8217;ll be leaving for school [at the University of Georgia] just two days after next week&#8217;s event. It&#8217;s a big change but I&#8217;m glad I can spend my last nationals at Pointe-Claire before I go off to school.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Markus Thormeyer, who made his Pan Am Games debut last month, provided a thrill by delivering a come-from-behind win for his Winskill Dolphins in 16- to 18-year-old boys 4 x 100-m freestyle. Thormeyer swam a 49.42-second anchor leg to combine for the gold with teammates Brandon Freiberger, Tai Long Singh and Paul Zou.<\/p>\n<p>Singh also won 15-year-old boys 100-m backstroke and 200-m freestyle for his fourth and fifth individual gold medals of the meet. The Winskill swimmer posted a 57.80-second 100-m backstroke.<\/p>\n<p>Molly Gowans of University of Victoria \u2013 Pacific Swim Club won her fourth gold by capturing 15-year-old girls 200-m freestyle in 2:01.30. Gowans prevailed by two-thirds of a second over Red Deer Catalina Swim Club&#8217;s Rebecca Smith (2:01.96).<\/p>\n<p>Sunday&#8217;s schedule also includes finals in 200-m IM and 400-m freestyle.<\/p>\n<p><em>The above article is a press release submitted to Swimming World.
