Georgia freshman Kennedi Dobson, representing Eastern Express, picked up her third individual win of the meet in the women’s 800m free.
The 19-year-old clocked a time of 8:33.50, three seconds clear of 1500m free winner Thilda Haell, with the pair finishing over ten seconds ahead of the rest of the field.
Sandpipers of Nevada’s Michaela Mattes was the only other swimmer to crack 8:50; she swam 8:47.14 to clear the rest of the field for bronze by about ten seconds.
Dobson’s time tonight sliced 1.24 seconds off her former best time from last summer’s World Junior Championships.
According to SwimCloud, Haell’s time sliced about two seconds off her former PB from the Indy Spring Cup earlier in the month; it appears to be a new Swedish Record. The 1500m free winner broke her own National Record in the 1500m free twice earlier in the week.
Mattes’ best time remains the 8:34.76 she threw down at the 2025 iteration of the Fort Lauderdale Pro Swim Series.

- Henry McFadden (JW) — 2:08.14
16-year-old Charlie Cancelmo (1:59.53) was the class of the men’s 200m fly final as he was the only swimmer to dip under the elusive 2:00 barrier.
Cancelmo won the race by just over half a second over open water ace Joey Tepper (2:00.13), who himself out-touched Puerto Rico’s Andres Brooks (2:00.24).
Cancelmo, a member of the high school class of 2028, boasts a best time of 1:58.27 from last summer’s Junior Nationals.
Notably, top-seeded Henry McFadden was eighth in 2:08.14, though he had a very quick turnaround after his victorious 100m free.

Hello Sean Griffin, just to point out PUR stands for Puerto Rico not Purdue. Wondering if you could fix that on the 200 Fly Men’s Final third place for Andres Brooks. Appreciate you!
Bella Sims 🫣
If only we could see 2023 Bella again
I really wish she had taken a gap year 2023-24 right before the Paris Olympics.
Bella Seems
What the hell was McFadden doing there?
had the 100 free about 5 mins before
Rip
help us understand.. how does MAs training work? if he trains at race pace is his race pace slower than whats needed to break 23 as PA said they were aiming for? their concept doesn’t make sense. do they expect him to race faster than he trains or race at the same pace he trains? if hes training at slow pace whats the point of racing as they dont train to peak? and how does he think hes going to suddenly be able to make la in four events when he fades anytime he swims more than one lap or event?
We don’t know how it’s evolved in his latest iteration back with his dad. But the fundamental of it is that he swims broken races. So they’d swim 25s at the pace he needs to go to do his goal time.
thank you BK. broken races (only clocking full speed when training 25m or yds) kind of explains why he struggles to maintain needed speed for more anything longer than a 50 or when he doubles. his fam bashes distance training of any sort, makes it sound like all swimmers but MA are miscoached. maybe they should talk with distance runners about hitting a runners high. its a pretty great feeling. distance work can be great and build racing endurance that he often lacks.
Eh, at one point what they were doing got them 99% of the way to “all time great.”
If that was more luck than intention we’ll never know, but it’s seemingly fallen apart.
I’d say 75%.
(Was it 30.69? I forget now.)
Idk I just rewatched those 58.1s he was going at the US Trials in 2021, that meet he was on another level. I don’t think any other year he’s been anywhere near where he was in 2021. he was a couple levels above any other year we’ve seen him swim. Dude could make the Olympic team in the 50 free right behind Dressel and then win the 200 IM. not sure if I care about the 30.6 too much when you consider how much he smashed everyone else by
Which we also should keep in mind what 1:55 meant back then. Wang Shun won the gold in 1:55.00 and Marchand and Casas only went 1:55 lows the year after in 2022
yes. 2021 was five years ago. MA partially blamed his dating relationship on some of his poor results like not making paris olympics. am surprised he still has sponsors as relay gold is good but common for olympic swimmers and not enough for most athletes to get sponsors. also surprised he has followers as he posts no unique content its all watch me swim 25 m, watch me grill, and check out my new surf board. uninspiring at best! more boasting from the MA camp than results. yesterday PA did a post saying they’re making a “Day in the life of Michael Andrew” video while he and Mikel “held back” wonder what its like for Mikel to play second fiddle… Read more »
not remotely all time great. one relay gold pales compared to the true swimming greats.
hi! I think you missed some of the words in my post because what you’re saying here agrees with what I said
They also do 50s, for example, to prepare for longer races.
Remember that Michael is still the American Record holder in the 100 breaststroke and he would have won a medal in the 200 IM in Tokyo if he had repeated his Trials time. So we can’t say it’s a total bust.
Is there a live recap page for the enhanced games?
The sports are tomorrow.
GIVE THE DEGENERATES WHAT WE WANT
As the world’s foremost combo elite swimming and fairweather strongman fan, I need a place to talk about this.
Precisely! 😂
Downvoters, I don’t gaf about EG. I won’t be watching. I was responding to SN “literal” self description. 😂
May I ask if they responded to the independant pool length check?
I thought MA was looking good handling the quick turnaround from 50FL, but reality hit hard at 75 meters.
What? MA ran out of gas?
😂
Great swim there backed off a bit around 1/2 way point but brought it back the last 150. And another 27.8 for Luka on the end there. Luka is by far the best current male Jr. age group swimmer in the world.
1:45.92
3:45.20
7:47.08
14:59.27
At 17 is a crazy freestyle resume to have. I don’t know the specifics but I believe Luka’s times are all ranked in the top 10 all time for 18 and under times except for the 1500 which is slightly further back.
ASP’s got it going on…
An attempt at humor perhaps?
I knew you’d find my comment lol
