Men’s 4×100 Free Relay<\/h3>\n
Caeleb Dressel\u00a0<\/strong>got things started with a new American Record in the 100 free in the final of the 4×100 free relay at 45.66, breaking the hours old record that was set by\u00a0Ryan Held\u00a0<\/strong>in the heats of the relay. Dressel moved up to 11th all-time in the 100 free with his swim.<\/p>\n
Dressel was followed by\u00a0Blake Pieroni\u00a0<\/strong>(45.75),\u00a0Michael Chadwick\u00a0<\/strong>(45.86) and\u00a0Ryan Held\u00a0<\/strong>(45.76) as those four broke the nine-year-old world record in the 4×100 free relay at 3:03.03. The United States held that world record from all the way back in the 2009 Duel in the Pool. They broke the record that was held by\u00a0Nathan Adrian\u00a0<\/strong>(45.08),\u00a0Matt Grevers\u00a0<\/strong>(44.68),\u00a0Garrett Weber-Gale\u00a0<\/strong>(47.43) and\u00a0Michael Phelps\u00a0<\/strong>(46.11).<\/p>\n
Dressel, Pieroni and Held were all in the same graduating class coming out of high school and college (2014, 2018), while Chadwick was a year before them.<\/p>\n
