Day two of the ISCA Spring Senior Cup concluded, and Pittsburgh Elite Aquatics (boys) and All Star Aquatics (girls) are off to an early lead.
The first full night of competition featured the 200 IM, 100 back, 200 free, and 50 fly.
Girl’s Meet Recap
Two women, Ally Vernon and Virginia Hinds, pulled off back-to-back wins in St. Petersburg last night: Vernon in the open category and Hinds in the 16 & under category.
Hinds, who competes for All Star Aquatics, fired off a personal best in the 100 back at 52.75, clipping her 52.87 best from Winter Juniors. She followed that up with a dominant 200 freestyle performance, touching in 1:47.82 and just missing her best time. The University of Georgia commit nearly made it a triple win with her 24.97 50 fly, but PEAQ’s Delaney O’Toole just out-touched her with a 24.90.
Quest Swimming’s Vernon captured wins in both the 200 free (1:49.24) and the 50 fly (25.17). Though good enough for the win by two seconds, her 200 free time was well of the 1:46.96 she posted at Virginia Senior Champs. The fly, however, was a best time, eclipsing the 25.54 she posted at ISCA’s spring meet in 2022.
Madeleine Simmons, who won last night’s mile, followed it up with an open victory in the women’s 200 IM, going 2:03.40. The top three times of the night, however, came from the 16-and-under division, led by Quest’s Emerson Callis (2:00.44). Callis, an NC State commit, didn’t approach her 1:58.82 lifetime best from earlier in the month.
Delaney Schwab dropped an impressive 1.34 seconds in less than a month in her 100 back to take the event’s open title. The Blues Aquatics Asheville swimmer blasted a 54.82.
Boy’s Meet Recap
After popping a field-leading 52.95 100 breaststroke in last night’s medley relays, Team Suffolk’s Noah Cakir was back at it last night. The 17-year-old Indiana University commit took the two longest events of the day, the 200 IM (1:46.02) and 200 free (1:38.34). Both times fall within a second of his lifetime bests.
The 16-and-under field for these events went to Nash King (1:49.66) and Austin Temple (1:38.42) respectively. For Temple, a Tide swimmer, this effort beat his personal best from Winter Juniors by .3.
In the shorter events of the session, the 100 backstroke and 50 butterfly, Jackson Edwards narrowly missed a double win. After getting his hand on the wall first in the 16-and-under backstroke, clocking a 49.42, the PEAQ swimmer placed second in the 50 fly by .03. The winner, Tide’s Parker Knapp, got the job done in 22.59 compared to Edwards’ 22.62.
Williamsburg’s Andrew Roose won the open 50 fly, going 22.00 on the dot. The open 100 back went to Coast Guard’s Ryan Griffith, though his 49.40 fell over a second off the 48.34 he posted at Virginia Senior Champs.
