Welcome to the 1st finals session of the 2025 U.S. Summer Championships in Irvine, California. Tonight’s finals session is scheduled to take about twice as long as prelims did this morning, coming in at about 2.5 hours. That’s partially due to the walkouts and awards, and partially because of the addition of a heat of the women’s 1500 free and men’s 800 free.
Day 1 Finals Schedule:
Women’s 1500 free – Timed Final Women’s 200 IM – Final Men’s 200 IM – Final Women’s 50 free – Final Men’s 50 free – Final Women’s 200 back – Final Men’s 200 back – Final Women’s 50 breast – Final Men’s 50 breast – Final Men’s 800 free – Timed FinalIndiana post grad Van Mathias was the story of prelims this morning. Mathias swam at the 2023 NCAA Championships, then didn’t swim a meet again until about 2 months ago. This morning, he ripped a 26.87 in the men’s 50 breast, which was so fast it would have won the event at U.S. Nationals 2 months ago. He comes into tonight as the top seed by a very large margin.
Australia’s Mia O’Leary was also quite impressive in the women’s 50 breast this morning. O’Leary clocked a 30.91, giving her the top seed heading into tonight by about half a second.
American Rhyan White was off her best this morning in the women’s 200 back, swimming a 2:11.48, however, she still led the field by 2 seconds. We can expect a faster swim out of White tonight, so let’s look forward to that.
Australia’s Jamie Jack was another highlight of this morning, posting a career best of 21.63 in the men’s 50 free.
