Margalis touched first with a 4:37.34, winning ahead of 2018 national champion\u00a0<strong>Ally McHugh\u00a0<\/strong>(4:38.09) and 2019 national champion\u00a0<strong>Emma Weyant\u00a0<\/strong>(4:39.64).<\/p>\n<p>Margalis also got under the meet record of 4:38.38 by\u00a0<strong>Katie Hoff\u00a0<\/strong>from 2006.<\/p>\n<p>The early leaders were Weyant and 4-time NCAA champion\u00a0<strong>Ella Eastin<\/strong>,\u00a0 who swam a much better race out in lane 1 than her 200 IM last night. Eastin wound up fourth with a 4:40.12 as she could not hang on to the pace on the freestyle with the likes of Margalis and McHugh, two very good freestylers. Margalis has been on fire this fall since the World Championships, setting SCM American records in both the 200 and 400 IM at the ISL this fall. She also swam a personal best in the 200 IM LCM last night in winning with a 2:08.8. She continued that hot streak with a 4:37 tonight, pulling along McHugh to a good 4:38 swim which was faster than what she swam at the World Championships when she was sixth in her Worlds debut.<\/p>\n<p>This was a particularly stacked field with four members of this summer&#8217;s World Championships team in attendance with Margalis, McHugh, Eastin and\u00a0<strong>Brooke Forde\u00a0<\/strong>making the final.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Results:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>4:37.34,\u00a0<strong>Melanie Margalis<\/strong>, USA, MR<\/li>\n<li>4:38.09,\u00a0<strong>Ally McHugh<\/strong>, USA<\/li>\n<li>4:39.64,\u00a0<strong>Emma Weyant<\/strong>, USA<\/li>\n<li>4:40.12,\u00a0<strong>Ella Eastin<\/strong>, USA<\/li>\n<li>4:40.93,\u00a0<strong>Emma Barksdale<\/strong>, USA<\/li>\n<li>4:40.94,\u00a0<strong>Brooke Forde<\/strong>, USA<\/li>\n<li>4:43.85,\u00a0<strong>Kathrin Demler<\/strong>, GER<\/li>\n<li>4:45.76,\u00a0<strong>Makayla Sargent<\/strong>, USA<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GWJGJiowL4A\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Men&#8217;s 400 IM<\/h3>\n<p><em>Meet Record: 4:11.11, Sebastien Rousseau, 2013<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Chase Kalisz\u00a0<\/strong>was able to keep the Georgia winning streak going tonight in Atlanta as he won the 400 IM final in similar fashion to\u00a0<strong>Melanie Margalis\u00a0<\/strong>in the previous event, using a strong breaststroke to distance himself from the field. Kalisz touched first at 4:13.07 to win the final ahead of rising star in Texas commit\u00a0<strong>Carson Foster<\/strong> (4:14.76), who was not far off his personal best of 4:13.39 from this summer&#8217;s nationals.

Bacon took everyone by surprise in beating the world record holder Smith with a 58.63 to Smith&#8217;s 58.68. That swim puts Bacon fifth in the world for the 2019 calendar year.<\/p>\n<p>Bacon won the Pan American Games this summer in the 100 back this summer and has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/phoebe-bacon-us-national-team-member-verbally-commits-to-wisconsin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">committed to swim at the University of Wisconsin<\/a> for next fall.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usaswimming.org\/meet-the-team\/national-team-bios?personid=558DE78A-6C34-432A-9781-DB224F4E166C\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bacon<\/a> comes from the same club as\u00a0<strong>Katie Ledecky<\/strong>, albeit a different site, as both come from the Nation&#8217;s Capital Swim Club in Washington DC.<\/p>\n<p>Smith was heavy favorite coming into this meet after she broke the world record in this event at the World Championships, completely wiping away\u00a0<strong>Kathleen Baker&#8217;s\u00a0<\/strong>standard with a 57.5 leading off the 4&#215;100 medley relay in Gwangju. She seemed to be invincible but this was her first meet since the Nationals in August so we did not know what kind of shape she was in.<\/p>\n<p>Phoebe Bacon had a quiet 2019 when she won Pan American Games in this event and was a 59.0 in leading off the medley relay to put her in the top ten in the world for the 2019 calendar year. She lowered her best time by four tenths tonight in Atlanta as she put her name in the running in the already super deep women&#8217;s 100 back field in the United States. Add in former world record holder <strong>Kathleen Baker\u00a0<\/strong>to this mix and it will be a race of epic proportions next summer.<\/p>\n<p>Smoliga finished in third with a 59.60 as she is coming off one of her most successful years with a bronze in this event at the World Championships. She finished tonight ahead of 2019 National champ\u00a0<strong>Amy Bilquist\u00a0<\/strong>(59.96) and <strong>Ali DeLoof\u00a0<\/strong>(1:00.34).
