We saw a few individual events and a few relays yesterday, with Florida setting a new SEC record in the men’s 200 medley to kick off the meet.
We are looking at some huge changes in the leaderboard this evening as the Tennessee women and the Texas men are projected to leap current leaders Texas and Florida after a very strong prelims session from both teams.
There are no relays this evening, so we are in for a short and exciting night. The meet will kick off with the 100 backstroke events where Alabama’s Emily Jones will be hoping to hold onto her top time from prelims as she tries to hold off Tennessee’s Jillian Crooks and Florida’s Catie Choate.
In the men’s 100 back, Hubert Kos is the clear favorite for the title as the NCAA record holder. He picked up the pool record in prelims at 43.87 and comes in about three tenths ahead of Texas teammate Will Modglin.
The 200 fly is led by Tennessee’s Ella Jansen, who sits just a tenth ahead of Texas’ Campbell Stoll in 1:53.26 and 1:53.36 respectively. Tennessee also has the 3rd seed in Emily Brown, who is only a tenth behind Stoll in 1:53.49 from the prelims.
Again, on the men’s side, the NCAA record holder in the 200 fly, Luca Urlando, is in the water, and is the favorite to win the title as the only sub-1:40 swimmer this morning.
Finally, the swimming events will wrap up with the 100 breaststrokes where Florida’s Anita Bottazzo earned the top spot by nearly a second in the women’s meet and Nate Germonprez sits about seven tenths ahead on the men’s side.
The meet will finish with the 3-Meter diving finals where LSU’s Carson Paul earned the top qualifying spot over Texas’ Nick Harris.
