Walsh has now been under the 21-mark 14 times, adding to her tally after swimming her 13th this morning as she posted a 20.87 in prelims.
In addition to her swim in the individual 50 free, she also swam the #2 50 free flying start split with a 20.09 in the 200 free relay at the start of the session.
Walsh broke the NCAA record in February as the record previously stood at a 20.79 that Maggie MacNeil swam at 2023 NCAAs. Since then, Walsh has been under that mark another four times.
Tennessee’s Camille Spink was just off of her time from this morning as Spink swam a 21.35 tonight. Spink climbed the all-time ranks this morning with a 21.33.
That gif is not the play

She is a senior, correct?
Correct
It looks like Gretchen Walsh is ready to “skewer” her opponents.
Once she graduates the clocks will have to be reset to standard time
I ended up upvoting this, but I was so deviously tempted to downvote to express my dissatisfaction with the inevitable
I don’t think Gretchen has ever added throughout a season. she always drops (not from her PB but just in general) as the season progresses so a 20.5 this early is very exciting
and I’m not counting her UNSUITED dual meets after midseasons last year, more the championship meets (midseasons, ACCs, NCAAs)
