Indiana’s Ian Finnerty\u00a0<\/strong>continued the barrier-breaking streak of this week’s championships by becoming the first man to dip under 50-seconds in the 100 breast in an insanely-quick time of 49.69, to win the A final.<\/p>\n

Finnerty was out well ahead of the rest of the field at the halfway mark with a split of 23.26, which was nearly identical to the 23.27 he posted during the prelims of the 200 medley relay. Finnerty showed no signs of remorse as he charged home over the last 50 yards in 26.43, solidifying himself as the only man to come back in under 27-seconds.<\/p>\n

In second was California’s Connor Hoppe<\/strong> in a 51.16 while USC’s Carsten Vissering<\/strong> touched third in 51.28.<\/p>\n

Tennessee’s Peter Stevens<\/strong> swam a 52.11 to win the B final.<\/p>\n
