It’s frustrating to see her beat everyone at the Winter Classic for me. Gl Regan

50 meters of breaststroke in long course, that’s very long for Regan Smith. 🙂

Grace Ariola had a great SCY season with PBs of 22.20 and 48.98. I think she can swim 25 low and 54 high next summer in the big pool and make the US team for world junior championships in Indianapolis.

I thought Grace Ariola was more of a backstroker?
Still, 55-high in season is terrific for a 16 year old
