Sharli Brady\u00a0<\/strong>of the University of Missouri ultimately won. Case enters the finals in seventh place with a time of 2:13.03, while Brady squeaked into the eighth-seed position with a 2:13.23.<\/p>\n1 Bayer, Cassidy 17 Nation's Capital 2:07.97 2:09.21 q837 \r\n r:+0.71 28.81 1:01.42 (32.61)\r\n 1:34.90 (33.48) 2:09.21 (34.31)\r\n 2 Flickinger, Hal 23 Athens Bulldog S 2:06.67 2:10.05 q821 \r\n r:+0.78 29.54 1:02.23 (32.69)\r\n 1:35.93 (33.70) 2:10.05 (34.12)\r\n 3 Martin, Ruby 17 Iowa Flyers Swim 2:09.96 2:11.72 q790 \r\n r:+0.74 29.74 1:02.72 (32.98)\r\n 1:36.94 (34.22) 2:11.72 (34.78)\r\n 4 *Stoppa, France 20 Princeton Piranh 2:12.56 2:11.77 q789 \r\n r:+0.67 29.99 1:02.57 (32.58)\r\n 1:37.71 (35.14) 2:11.77 (34.06)\r\n 5 Krause, Vanessa 19 Unattached Mich\/ 2:09.54 2:12.63 q774 \r\n r:+0.67 30.00 1:03.94 (33.94)\r\n 1:38.45 (34.51) 2:12.63 (34.18)\r\n 6 Saiz, Hannah 26 Schroeder YMCA S 2:09.61 2:12.67 q773 \r\n r:+0.86 30.29 1:03.92 (33.63)\r\n 1:37.52 (33.60) 2:12.67 (35.15)\r\n 7 Case, Lauren 19 Longhorn Aquatic 2:10.36 2:13.03 q767 \r\n r:+0.73 29.75 1:03.61 (33.86)\r\n 1:38.25 (34.64) 2:13.03 (34.78)\r\n 8 Brady, Sharli 21 U. of Missouri 2:14.30 2:13.23 q764 \r\n r:+0.79 30.27 1:03.87 (33.60)\r\n 1:37.59 (33.72) 2:13.23 (35.64)<\/pre>\nMen’s 200 Butterfly:<\/h2>\n
Gunnar Bentz\u00a0<\/strong>of Athens Bull Dog Swim Club earned the top seed for the finals in 1:59.20. His time is over three seconds off his entry time, so Bentz will look to drop significant time in the evening. Bentz tops a jam-packed heat of six times under two minutes.<\/p>\nJust behind Bentz, swimming unattached, is Miles Smachio<\/strong>, who posted a 1:59.39. The two men are similarly matched with pacing.<\/p>\nIn the third seed, Marlins of Raleigh’s\u00a0Zach Brown<\/strong>\u00a0swam a solid morning time of 1:59.46, just a half second off of his entry time. Brown will look to crack into the top two seeds.<\/p>\nSam Pomajevich\u00a0<\/strong>of Nation’s Capital Swim Club will be the fourth seed in the evening, thanks to a steady swim in 1:59.77 in the prelims.<\/p>\nIn the fifth seed, Cardinal Aquatics’\u00a0Zach Harting\u00a0<\/strong>finished in 1:59.79, only two hundredths behind Pomajevich. The two are likely to have a close race in the evening, amid an otherwise tight field.<\/p>\nJust after\u00a0Harting,\u00a0Mike Thomas\u00a0<\/strong>of California Aquatics took the sixth seed for the A-Final, in 1:59.83.<\/p>\nThe only two swimmers over two minutes,\u00a0Mick Litherland\u00a0<\/strong>of Dynamo Swimming (2:00.16) and Australian\u00a0Bowen Gough\u00a0<\/strong>(2:00.20), are also close to one another going into the finals.<\/p>\n 1 Bentz, Gunnar 21 Athens Bulldog S 1:55.51 1:59.20 q818 \r\n r:+0.79 27.01 57.27 (30.26)\r\n 1:27.79 (30.52) 1:59.20 (31.41)\r\n 2 Smachlo, Miles 19 Unattached Mich\/ 1:57.64 1:59.39 q814 \r\n r:+0.71 27.19 57.42 (30.23)\r\n 1:28.61 (31.19) 1:59.39 (30.78)\r\n 3 Brown, Zach 17 Marlins of Ralei 1:59.00 1:59.46 q813 \r\n r:+0.71 27.51 58.26 (30.75)\r\n 1:28.83 (30.57) 1:59.46 (30.63)\r\n 4 Pomajevich, Sam 18 Nation's Capital 1:57.62 1:59.77 q807 \r\n r:+0.71 26.59 57.42 (30.83)\r\n 1:28.92 (31.50) 1:59.77 (30.85)\r\n 5 Harting, Zach 19 Cardinal Aquatic 1:56.65 1:59.79 q806 \r\n r:+0.70 27.37 57.78 (30.41)\r\n 1:28.48 (30.70) 1:59.79 (31.31)\r\n 6 Thomas, Mike 19 California Aquat 1:57.98 1:59.83 q805 \r\n r:+0.73 27.05 57.49 (30.44)\r\n 1:28.43 (30.94) 1:59.83 (31.40)\r\n 7 Litherland, Mic 21 Dynamo Swim Club 1:57.04 2:00.16 q799 \r\n r:+0.69 27.27 57.94 (30.67)\r\n 1:28.84 (30.90) 2:00.16 (31.32)\r\n 8 *Gough, Bowen 19 W Australia IS 2:00.02 2:00.20 q798 \r\n r:+0.75 27.22 58.10 (30.88)\r\n 1:29.22 (31.12) 2:00.20 (30.98)\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\nWomen’s 100 Freestyle:<\/h2>\n
The first place seed went to\u00a0Marie Wattel<\/strong>, representing France, in 55.15. Wattel’s time is just two-hundredths slower than her fourth-place seed time of 55.13, and she headlines a field completely filled with 55-second 100 freestyles.<\/p>\nCourtney Caldwell\u00a0<\/strong>of Wolfpack Elite took the next top seed in 55.43, but she will look to improve in the evening and match her seed time of 54.80.<\/p>\nSimilarly,\u00a0Margo Geer\u00a0<\/strong>of Tucson Ford Dealers Aquatics\u00a0posted a 55.50 to earn the third seed in finals, but her entry time indicates her capable of a 54.66.<\/p>\nSwimming unattached,\u00a0Amanda Kendall<\/strong> earned the fourth seed in the A-Final with a 55.69. Kendall’s second fifty was a speedy 28.42, the fastest in the field, so she may make a move in the evening.<\/p>\nClaire Rasmus\u00a0<\/strong>of Aggie Swim Club (55.91) finished just one hundredth ahead of teammate\u00a0Kristin Malone<\/strong>\u00a0(55.92), and both look likely to remain close in the evening swim.<\/p>\nThe seventh seed for the final went to\u00a0Rebecca Millard\u00a0<\/strong>of Longhorn Aquatics in 55.94.<\/p>\nFinally,\u00a0Claire Adams\u00a0<\/strong>of Carmel Swim Club rounds out the top heat of the final with a 55.97, just three hundredths behind Millard and sixth hundredths off of the fifth-place seed.<\/p>\n 1 *Wattel, Marie 20 France 55.13 55.15 q841 \r\n r:+0.71 26.34 55.15 (28.81)\r\n 2 Caldwell, Court 20 WOLFPACK ELITE\/N 54.80 55.43 q828 \r\n r:+0.72 26.59 55.43 (28.84)\r\n 3 Geer, Margo 25 Tucson Ford Deal 54.66 55.50 q825 \r\n r:+0.69 26.87 55.50 (28.63)\r\n 4 Kendall, Amanda 26 Unattached IST 55.34 55.69 q817 \r\n r:+0.76 27.27 55.69 (28.42)\r\n 5 Rasmus, Claire 20 Aggie Swim Club 55.10 55.91 q807 \r\n r:+0.70 27.48 55.91 (28.43)\r\n 6 Malone, Kristin 21 Aggie Swim Club 55.72 55.92 q807 \r\n r:+0.73 26.99 55.92 (28.93)\r\n 7 Millard, Rebecc 22 Longhorn Aquatic 55.05 55.94 q806 \r\n r:+0.74 26.86 55.94 (29.08)\r\n 8 Adams, Claire 19 Carmel Swim Club 55.64 55.97 q805 \r\n r:+0.74 27.00 55.97 (28.97)\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\nMen’s 100 Freestyle:<\/h2>\n
The top seed of the men’s 100 freestyle went to\u00a0Tate Jackson\u00a0<\/strong>of Longhorn Aquatics, who posted a 48.99–the only 48 of the morning–early in the circle heats.<\/p>\nThe second top finisher, in a time of 49.19, was the University of Alabama’s Robert\u00a0<\/strong>Howard<\/strong>, whose back half split of 25.40 predicts him as a force to be reckoned with in the evening.<\/p>\nBJ Hornikel<\/strong>, swimming unattached, and\u00a0Maxime Rooney\u00a0<\/strong>of the Pleasanton Seahawks, tied for the third seed in the event, both posting the time of 49.33 in the final heat. Hornikel took out his swim fast (23.39), while Ronney chose to finish quickly (25.75).<\/p>\nThe next top seed belonged to Jeff Newkirk<\/strong>, representing Quest Swimming, in 49.77.<\/p>\nJust behind Newkirk,\u00a0Brett Ringgold\u00a0<\/strong>of the North Texas Nadadores also went sub-fifty–49.88–for the sixth seed in the final.<\/p>\nAndrew Loy\u00a0<\/strong>of Ohio State University laid claim to the seventh seed, in 50.35.
