VICTORIA, British Columbia, April 2. TWO recent competitors at the women\u2019s NCAA championships battled for the win at the Canadian long course nationals in the 100 backstroke to get a spot on the international racing squad.<\/p>\n
Sinead Russell, fresh from racing for Florida at the NCAAs, wore a Gators swim cap as she won the race in 1:00.00. It\u2019s just off her national record of 59.68, but an impressive swim on her second taper. Right behind her was Brooklynn Snodgrass, who swims for Indiana collegiately. Snodgrass posted a 1:00.23 to just barely beat her lifetime best. Hilary Caldwell, who will be a major force in the 200 back, was third in 1:00.99. <\/p>\n
All three swimmers beat the standard time of 1:01.25, so they will each represent Canada in the event at the Commonwealth Games and Pan Pacific championships.<\/p>\n
