The highlight of the Friday finals session in Clovis goes to Luca Urlando‘s record-breaking win in the men’s 200 fly. Urlando took his second fly victory of the weekend with a lifetime best time of 1:53.84. Not only was that a new PSS record, but it also took down Michael Phelps‘ 17-18 NAG from 2003. While remaining the 3rd-fastest time in the world in 2019, Urlando has now become the #3 all-time American performer and #11 all-time world performer in the event.
Also moving up in the age rankings was 16-year-old Isabelle Stadden, who took her first PSS win of the season in the women’s 100 back. Stadden won the event in a barrier-breaking lifetime best of 59.71. Stadden is now the 4th-fastest 15-16 swimmer and 8th-fastest 18&U swimmer in history.
In the men’s 200 breast, the top 3 swimmers have all moved into the top 10 American times this year. Winner Daniel Roy is now the 5th-fastest American with his winning time of 2:10.43. Runner-up AJ Pouch swam a lifetime best of 2:11.06 to rank 6th in the US this year. 30-year-old Brandon Fischer and last night’s 100 breast champ smashed another lifetime best with his 3rd-place time of 2:11.91, now #9 in the US.

Disappointing that the US World Team was selected last year. Lots of great talent left out this year.
It’s interesting to watch Louise Hansson in Long Course. She obviously has great underwaters and breakouts, but over the course of the 50 she seems to ride lower and lower in the water. I think this is probably something that is less apparently in Short Course, which explains her dominance there, but I wonder what she can do to make her Long Course game as good.
urlandos going to break the wr at the olympics next year
