For the fourth consecutive year, Lilly King won the 100 breast at the NCAA Championships.
She went 55.73 Friday night in Austin to break every record in the books, all of which were her own. Her previous NCAA, American, and US Open records stood at 55.88, which she just swam last month at the 2019 Big Ten Championships. King was 57.55 in prelims Friday morning.

King has now gone under :56 twice (flat start), and has dropped half a second in the last month – her PR going into Big Tens was 56.25. She is one of two swimmers ever to break :57, the other being Molly Hannis, and is the only swimmer to break 56.

Any video link? Streaming kept cycling to black screen here, so missed it… Thanks
Glad to see her smiling and enjoying it. It’s almost inconceivable that she’s faster every year over these four years.
Lilly is tough – ” Tough as nails “
Holla for my girl Delaney though. Amazing performance.
Much earned performance. Congrats Delaney and Peter!
Flinched at the start, slo-mo showed it pretty clearly.
