RECAP
Women’s Highlights:
- Alabama’s Mia Nonnenberg took the 1650 free in 16:04.70, after winning the 400 IM on Day Two of competition.

- Auburn freshman Julie Meynen won the 100 free in 48.33.
- South Carolina’s Kersten Dirrane won the 200 breast in 2:11.09.
- Auburn sophomore Bailey Nero won the 200 fly in 1:56.49, making it two wins on the day for Auburn underclassmen.
- Auburn finished off the meet with a win in the 400 free relay (3:17.01), just over a second off the A-cut standard.
Men’s Highlights:
- South Carolina’s Akaram Mahmoud cruised past his competitors in the mile, finishing more than 8 seconds ahead of second place.
- Senior Conor Oslin from Alabama won the 200 back by more than 1.5 seconds in 1:41.64.
- Florida’s Caleb Dressel won the 100 free in a jaw-dropping 41.60—that’s six-and-a-half tenths faster than the A-cut time.
- Georgia Tech’s Moises Loschi won the 200 breast in 1:53.88, less than a second away from the automatic qualifying time.
- Jan Switkowski from Florida won the 200 fly in 1:43.42. Georgia Tech’s Tim Slanschek and Ben Southern finished second and third.
- Alabama finished off the meet with a win in the 400 free relay (2:51.06) in another A-cut time. The Tide won 4 out of 5 relays over the course of the meet, dropping only the 800 free relay to Florida. The Gators finished only four one-hundredths of a second behind Alabama in the 400 free relay, which also registered as an A time standard. Dressel split a 41.19 with the rolling start.
The title of this article is a bit much. Chadwick went 41.8 this weekend–41.6 isn’t “another level.”
Thats great for the next year WC 400 free relay for Team Usa if Dressel continues like that …..Chadwick and Held might well join him on that relay ….
I’m positive held will be on that relay considering he was in the Olympics
He’s such a fast twitch muscle firecracker it’s almost implausible to think he won’t be under 18.0 barrier this year or next.
I just want to see a 39 in the 100 ^^
Now the 17.99 and 39.99 by his senior year don’t seem THAT unrealistic if he keeps improving like this. I know it’s a lot to ask
Those don’t even look like swimming numbers.
so so fast! great for us swimming!
His 44.8 > 41.6.
He’s about the only swimmer on the planet who can make a 41.6 seem relatively pedestrian.
He finished a body and a half ahead of everyone. It was insane.
41.6 is the best he has ever been in December and is his fourth fastest 100 free ever. I don’t think this is pedestrian in any which way.
It becomes pedestrian when he goes 41.7 in prelims, which he did at SECs and NCAAs last year.
Morozov in short course is also in the conversation.
And Adrian if he swam in yards too.
