The Virginia coaching staff timed a1:36.7, and our hand timing of the video essentially confirms that with a 1:36.9. Regardless of those two-tenths, it is still an incredibly fast time for this early in the season. A time of 1:36.9 would have put them seeded ahead of five teams going into the 2020 NCAA D1 Women’s Swimming and Diving Championships. 1:36.7 would have jumped 3 more teams.
Virginia had the fastest time in the NCAA last season in this event in 1:33.91.
The relay was made up of two of the four members (Wenger and Douglass) of UVA’s ACC meet record-setting relay from last spring.
Splits
- Alex Walsh – 24.1
- Alexis Wenger – 27.4
- Lexi Cuomo – 23.7
- Kate Douglass – 21.4
If it happens; UVA will win the women’s NCAA swimming championship,
Would have won last year too (2020)
And apparently did this in practice suits
Woah isnāt it kinda early for Desorbo to start tapering his swimmers
The Desorbo watch strikes again.
I timed it. It was accurate.
