Ariarne Titmus In Record Breaking Touch At NSW Championships in Sydney<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dual Olympic champion<\/a> Ariarne Titmus<\/strong> (St Peters Western, QLD) has started her NSW<\/a> State Open Championship campaign in record-breaking style, setting a new NSW-All-comers record last night in the 800m freestyle.<\/p>\n

Titmus, the Olympic silver medalist behind US gun Katie Ledecky<\/strong> in Tokyo, started out her night at the Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre with a slick fourth placed 100m freestyle in 54.53 behind club mate Shayna Jack.<\/p>\n

But the longer it is the better \u201cArnie\u201d likes it and one of the real super-stars of the Dolphins Tokyo medal haul, finished it off in fine style, taking out the 800m in a time of 8:18.59 (59.91; 2.03.01; 3:06.53; 4:09.98; 5:12.61; 6:15.42; 7:18.13).<\/p>\n

It took one full second off Jessicah Ashwood\u2019s<\/strong> 2016 NSW All-Comers mark of 8:19.59, when the 2012 and 2016 dual Olympian was swimming with Queensland\u2019s Chandler club.<\/p>\n

Titmus had staged a real battle royal with St Peters Western training partner and fellow Tokyo 800m freestyle finalist Kiah Melverton <\/strong>over the first 700m.<\/p>\n

Melverton stuck to Titmus like glue as she split 1:00.17 at the 100m mark, 2:03.34 (200m) and 4:10.30 (400m) \u2013only trailing Titmus at the 700m turn by one full second.<\/p>\n

It was over the final two laps where Titmus extended her lead by 0.86 \u2013 powering home over the final 100m in 1:00.46 to Melverton\u2019s 1:01.32.<\/p>\n

And in encouraging signs, World Junior champion Lani Pallister<\/strong> (Griffith University) returned to competition for the first time since last year\u2019s Olympic Trials to finish third in 8:28.78, ahead of club mate and Australian five and 10km champion Moesha Johnson<\/strong> (8:28.96).<\/p>\n

The girls all lined up in today\u2019s 400m freestyle heats, with Titmus leading the qualifiers for the final in 4:09.29, ahead of Melverton (4:09.43), Johnson (4:09.76), Pallister (4:10.40) and Maddie Gough (4:12.14).<\/p>\n

Jack stole the 100m freestyle title when she powered down the first lap in 25.69 \u2013 with a real \u201ccatch me if you can\u201d plan with the field in hot pursuit.<\/p>\n

But as hard as they tried they couldn\u2019t get to Jack who held on to clock 53.13 \u2013 a time that would have seen her sixth at last year\u2019s Olympic Trials and on the team for Tokyo.<\/p>\n

Mollie O\u2019Callaghan<\/strong> (St Peters Western, QLD) the 16-year-old who was sixth and went on to swim in the heats of both the 4×100 and 4x200m freestyle in Tokyo \u2013 taking gold and bronze respectively \u2013 produced the fastest second 50 of 26.99, touching in 53.67, with Jack reversing the placings from December\u2019s Queensland Championships.<\/p>\n

Marion SA\u2019s Madi Wilson<\/strong> \u2013 who was out in 26.20, behind Jack, finished third in 53.68.<\/p>\n

Former WA Tokyo bronze medallist in the 4x100m freestyle relay Zac Incerti<\/strong> (Marion) kept his cool in the men\u2019s 100m freestyle to power home to claim the title after fellow relay team member and SA-based training partner Matt Temple<\/strong> (ex-Nunawading, VIC) led down the first lap.<\/p>\n

Temple was out in 23.71 to USC Spartan QLD\u2019s Ashton Brinkworth\u2019s<\/strong> 24;03 and Incerti\u2019s 24.05 \u2013 but it was Incerti\u2019s sub 26 second 50 that saw him claim the win in 49.52 from Temple (49.87) and Brinkworth (50.13).<\/p>\n

Griffith University\u2019s Cody Simpson<\/strong> (50.27) finished fourth and Elijah Winnington <\/strong>(St Peters Western) 50.49 fifth after his stirring victory in the men\u2019s 400m freestyle.<\/p>\n

Winnington clocked an eye-catching 3:47.05 to take the 400m from Griffith University training-partners Tokyo 400IM bronze medallist Brendon Smith<\/strong> (3:50.56) and Rio Olympic champion Mack Horton<\/strong> (3:52.81).<\/p>\n

While another of the Olympic champions in Sydney this weekend, Kaylee<\/strong> McKeown <\/strong>(Griffith University) 2:05.85, didn\u2019t disappoint in a comfortable win in the women\u2019s 200m backstroke ahead of O\u2019Callaghan (2:10.91) and USC Spartans Tahlia Thornton<\/strong> (2:13.03)<\/p>\n

In other events on night one:<\/p>\n

DUAL Olympian Brianna Throssell<\/strong> (26.24) claimed the 50m butterfly and Olympic team mate Mitch Larkin<\/strong> (Chandler) the 50m backstroke in 25.48<\/p>\n

TOKYO medley relay gold medallist Chelsea Hodges<\/strong> (Southport, QLD) was the only swimmer under 1:08, for a comfortable win in the 100m breaststroke in 1:07.23.<\/p>\n

USC Spartans 20-year-old Joshua Yong<\/strong> (27.89) was too slick for Blue Mountains boys, Tokyo Olympian Matthew Wilson<\/strong> (28.18) and Haig Buckingham<\/strong> (28.36) \u2013 both from the Sydney Olympic Swim Club second and third respectively. ST PETERS WESTERN\u2019s Jenna Forrester<\/strong> took out the women\u2019s 400IM in 4:41.81.<\/p>\n
