Bick<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Kristen Romano<\/strong> is in a similar position on the women\u2019s side. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/off-big-tens-win-kristen-romano-ohio-state-building-to-ncaas\/\">Ohio State veteran<\/a> set a best time of 2:12.86, more than four seconds faster than her seed time, which wasn\u2019t even a B cut. The Olympic A standard is 2:12.56, which she came agonizingly close to. Her national record augments marks in the 400 IM, 200 backstroke, 200 freestyle and 400 free.<\/p>\n<p>The other Puerto Rican record came via <strong>Yeziel Moralez<\/strong> in the men\u2019s 50 back. He twice lowered the mark, going 25.66 in prelims and then 25.52 in the final to win easily. The hosts swept the back events, with <strong>Celismar Guzman<\/strong> winning the women\u2019s event in 29.60 over countrywoman <strong>Linzel Ortiz<\/strong> but just six hundredths of a second.<\/p>\n<p>The only A cut of the meet was supplied by Venezuela\u2019s <strong>Alfonso Mestre.<\/strong> The <a href=\"https:\/\/floridagators.com\/news\/2021\/6\/23\/mens-swimming-diving-alfonso-mestre-qualifies-for-the-tokyo-2020-olympics.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">University of Florida swimmer<\/a> set a national record in the 800 free 7:50.81 off the front of the 1,500 free on Wednesday. That time, supplied ahead of FINA\u2019s official cutoff for qualification to Tokyo, should get Mestre there, as it well undercut the A standard of 7:54.31.<\/p>\n<p>El Salvador saw four records rewritten at the CCCAN Championships. <strong>Elisa Funes<\/strong> was second in the 100 breast in 1:13.89, to take down a record. She got within .23 seconds of <strong>Marissa Lugo,<\/strong> the Puerto Rican swimmer who dropped more than five seconds from prelims. Funes also went 2:40.66 in the 200 breast to lower her national mark Friday. She was .47 behind Lugo for silver in that event.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Celina Marquez<\/strong> set a Salvadoran record in the 50 butterfly at 27.69 seconds, finishing second to <strong>Madelyn Moore<\/strong> of Bermuda, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.royalgazette.com\/swimming\/sport\/article\/20210624\/moore-clinches-gold-medal-in-record-breaking-time-in-puerto-rico\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">set a national record<\/a> in 27.12. (Moore would win Friday\u2019s 100 free in 56.75.) <strong>Isabella Alas<\/strong> went 2:21.84 to set the national mark in the women\u2019s 200 IM.<\/p>\n<p>Haiti\u2019s <strong>Davidson Vincent<\/strong> set a national mark in the men\u2019s 50 fly, winning the event in 24.74. He just edged <strong>Carlos Vasquez<\/strong> of Honduras by a quarter-second, his 24.98 a national mark. Fellow Honduran <strong>Julimar Avila<\/strong> set a record in the women\u2019s 200 IM at 2:20.73. Avila also won the 200 free on Friday, outdueling Guzman by .16 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Among the other winners at the CCCAN Championships, which hosts races from age-group on up, was 33-year-old <strong>Edgar Crespo.<\/strong> The Olympic B cut holder from Panama went 1:02.20 to win the men\u2019s 100 breast, within a second of his national record. Second was countryman <strong>Tyler Christianson,<\/strong> who would ease to victory in Friday\u2019s 200 breast.<\/p>\n<p>Aruba\u2019s <strong>Mikel Schreuders<\/strong> picked up a pair of wins. He took the men\u2019s 200 free in 1:53.16, .12 ahead of El Salvador\u2019s <strong>Marcelo Acosta.<\/strong> He also won the 100 free in 50.37.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twelve national records have fallen in the first two days of competition at the Central American and Caribbean Swimming (CCCAN) Championships in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
