On the heels of her impressive 200m back swim yesterday while competing at the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima, Peru, 17-year-old Isabelle Stadden fired off a new lifetime best in the women’s 100m back today as relay lead-off.
Stadden first clocked a morning 200m back time yesterday of 2:09.15, which the Cal commit lowered to 2:08.39 for silver behind teammate Alex Walsh in the individual final. But today, Stadden led-off the mixed medley relay in a 100m back split of 59.69. That sliced .02 off of the now-17-year-old’s previous lifetime best of 59.71 logged just this past June at the Pro Swim Series in Clovis.
Today in Lima, Peru, Stadden’s sub-minute outing was composed of 29.11/30.58 to give the Aquajet swimmer her new best time and also check her in as the 8th fastest American female ever in the 17-18 age group for the 100m back.

Smoliga’s personal best – 58.73
Start sweating Olivia.
She doesn’t sweat! She’s an Ice Queen!
I can’t see her making it in the 100 back, she could make the 4×100 though. For some reason lots of people on here underestimate Kathleen Baker who was just returning from injury at Worlds. There is literally only one person who has been faster than Baker in backstroke ever
I know FINA doesn’t count mixed relay lead offs for WRs, but what about USA Swimming irt rankings? Does this swim count, officially?
Maybe it’ll be like bernard’s 46.94, which is the French record but not the European record
That women’s 100 back at trials is going to be sick. Might take a sub-1:00 to make finals.
