Women’s 50 Freestyle – Final – Reported by SwimSwam
After missing her heat this morning and qualifying from the B-flight during prelims, Arianna Vanderpool-Wallace won the 50 freestyle with the eighth fastest time in the world this year at 24.65. Her SwimMAC teammate, Madison Kennedy finished second at 24.78. Jessica Hardy was third at 25.46, and Ivy Martin, the swimmer from Wisconsin, finished fourth at 25.53. Faith Johnson and Amanda Weir finsihed 5th and 6th, both touching the wall under the 26 second mark. Katie Meili dropped .63 seconds to win the B-final of the women’s 50 freestyle.
I didn’t see that kind of times coming!
Usually the women’s 50 free is slow at the Grand Prix meets.
It looks like both SwimMAC sprinters were well rested to swim fast at home.
Cool to watch a quick race.
