At just seventeen years old, Regan Smith has gained international attention for her dominance in backstroke events. This evening was no exception, as Smith swam a 28.08 backstroke lap, beating several noteworthy names from Power Five conferences.<\/p>\n

Kylee Alons gave Smith a run, as she touched in with a 28.21 to cinch second, narrowly beating her teammate Elise Haan (28.37). Isabelle Stadden remained a contender throughout, posting a 28.57 to claim the spot ahead of Fanny Teijonsalo (28.65). The packed heat didn’t end there, as Beata Nelson crashed the pads with a 28.72 to round out the 28’s. Maggie Wanezek and Lisa Bratton (29.22) engaged in a tight sprint race at the flags, with Wanezek seizing the 0.01 advantage, dropping a 29.21.<\/p>\n
