decided to skip other specialist event, the 200m freestyle on night one and added her occasional 200m butterfly to her sprint events.<\/p>\n<p>The 26-year-old Rio Olympian and Australia\u2019s prolific international medallist led all the way to beat emerging 16-year-old <strong>Elizabeth Dekkers<\/strong> (Newmarket Racers) 59.70 after her Australian 16 years record over 200m butterfly (2:08.46) last night with <strong>Alice Stuart<\/strong> (TSS Aquatic) 1:00.31 in third.<\/p>\n<p>And in the women\u2019s 100m breaststroke, 19-year-old <strong>Chelsea Hodges <\/strong>(Southport)

<strong>Lani Pallister,<\/strong> swimming for Sunshine Coast club Cotton Tree for the last time, add the 400m to her gold medal in the 200m on night one.<\/p>\n<p>Pallister clocked a slick time of

Aquatic) 49.17, just edging out Rackley\u2019s Louis Townsend\u2019s 49.19.<\/p>\n<p>And it was a night that also saw the emergence of a rising star in 15-year-old <strong>Richard Scarce<\/strong> coached freestyle sprinter <strong>Flynn Southam <\/strong>(Bond) who lowered a record set by Olympic champion Kyle Chalmers back in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Southam, cracked the 50 seconds barrier for there

seen him finish sixth in the open final.<\/p>\n<p>The men\u2019s 100m butterfly saw visiting Nunawading Australian representative <strong>Matt Temple<\/strong> continue his march towards next year\u2019s Olympic Trials with an all-the-way win, clocking 51.64 \u2013 just outside his best of 51.47.<\/p>\n<p>Temple left Olympians <strong>Mitch Larkin<\/strong> (St Peters Western) 52.78 and
