Good Morning to all those just waking up to enjoy some fast swimming on the west coast, and Good [Insert Time of Day here] to the rest of you wherever you may be. For those of us on the East Coast of the United States, today’s prelims session fits perfectly into your lunch break, with the session, just six events long, expected to take just over an hour to complete
Day 2 Prelims Schedule:
Women’s 400 Free Men’s 400 Free Women’s 100 Fly Men’s 100 Fly Women’s 200 Breast Men’s 200 BreastThe session kicks off with the 400 freestyle with Amelia Weber and Aaron Shackell as the top seeds. Weber, who hails from Australia, achieved a time of 4:06.78 at her nation’s trials in June and was under their qualifying standard for Singapore; however, she placed 3rd and was unable to be named to the team. Her biggest competition comes from Bella Sims, who also placed 3rd at her trials, the US Nationals, but was named to the team for the 4×200 free relay, where she helped them win the silver medal. The pair, both seeded under 4:10, are joined there by Madi Mintenko and Michaela Mattes and the quartet will look to set up a strong final tonight.
The men’s 400 free prelims are expected to set up a showdown between the USA’s two Paris Olympians in this event. Shackell and Kieran Smith both had off meets at the US Nationals and will be in the hunt for a good lane in tonight’s final. The pair are both seeded under 3:46 and lead the field by over two seconds, but don’t expect them to be that fast, as only times swum in the final tonight can earn them a spot on the Pan-Pac roster, with each chasing the 2nd place time of 3:45.71 from US Nationals.
The 100s of fly, too, see a pair of Olympians atop the field as Alex Shackell and Caeleb Dressel lead their respective fields. Shackell missed the plane to Singapore by one spot, but will need to swim a personal best in tonight’s final if she wishes to earn a spot on the Pan-Pac roster in this event. Dressel, on the other hand, did not compete at the US Nationals, but he too is possibly in the hunt for a Pan-Pacs roster spot. Seeded a full second over his closest competition, Ben Armbruster of Australia and Aiden Hayes of Wolfpack Elite, Dressel will be hunting for a strong finish tonight, after taking the bronze last night in the 50 free.
The morning concludes with the 200 breaststroke, where, despite the event being a weakness in Singapore for the Australians, they hold the top seeds in both the men’s and women’s events. Sienna Harben leads the field in the women’s event, with her seed time of 2:26.94 over a second and a half clear of her closest competitors, Isabelle Odgers and Kaitlyn Nguyen, both of Ivrine Novaquatics. On the men’s side, Joshua Collett, a fellow Aussie, will look to earn the top seed tonight against NCAA champion Jassen Yep and Hong Kong’s Adam Chillingworth.
