After a ton of Junior Pan Pacs Records went down through the first 3 days of the 2022 Championships, the U.S. boys 4×100 free relay squad of Thomas Heilman, Henry McFadden, Daniel Diehl, and Kaii Winkler teamed up to break the World Junior Record to close out the day 3 finals session last night. Below, you’ll see the race video from USA Swimming’s YouTube account.
The race starts out in Australia’s favor, as Flynn Southam, the individual 100 free champion, got out to a blistering 48.43 start. It was all Team USA from that point on, however, seeing McFadden, Diehl, and Winkler take and expand the lead through the finish. Diehl had a particularly great split, throwing down a scorching 48.66 on the 3rd leg.
Here are the splits from last night’s relay, as well as the splits from the previous World Junior Record relay from 2019.

It is so bizarre thinking about how fast these guys are for 18U…and then reminding myself there is Chlorine Daddy
You think it is possible Popovicis age is faked and the dude is really like 22? Lol
Chlorine Daddy kind of desensitizes me to what are unquestionably great 100 free times/splits at the 18U level. 48.6 is legit!
I don’t know if it was the most exciting race of the Jr. Pan Pacs, to date, but I was certainly shouting at my screen for TEAM USA – they just did a superb job against a very talented Aussie team!
Beat those Aussies!
Oi! Oi! Oi!
What a studly swim. The US junior well replenished!
Anyone has video of the womens 4×200?
