Lexi Smith topped the women’s 100 free in 50.53, followed by Sherridon Dressel in 51.17. Smith and Dressel were both significantly faster than any other NCAA swim so far this year.

She was well ahead of teammate Georgia Marris, who went 2:05.59 for second place. 2016 Polish Olympian Jan Switowski won the men’s race in 1:51.08, over two seconds ahead of second place sophomore Maxime Rooney‘s 1:53.41.
