Welcome to the third and final timed finals session of the 2026 UVA Pro Elite SCM Worlds Prep Meet. This evening’s events include:

    Women’s 50m Freestyle Men’s 50m Freestyle Women’s 200 IM Men’s 200 IM Women’s 50 Breaststroke Men’s 50 Breaststroke Women’s 100 Backstroke Men’s 100 Backstroke Women’s 200 Freestyle Men’s 200 Freestyle Women’s 50 Butterfly Men’s 50 Butterfly

    Half of tonight’s events will feature the world record holder. Kate Douglass (200 IM), Gretchen Walsh (50 free, 50 fly), Regan Smith (100 back), Jordan Crooks (50 free), and Luke Hobson (200 free) will be ones to watch, with three American records already having fallen this morning and more almost certain to come tonight.

    Walsh will have Italian record holder Sara Curtis and Abbey Weitzeil to contend with in the 50 free, while her sister Alex Walsh will battle Douglass in the 200 IM.

    Jordan Crooks and Caeleb Dressel, two of the most explosive sprinters in history, will cross paths for just the third time in the men’s 50 free. They have only swum against each other in the semi-final and final of the 50 free at the 2024 Olympic Games, and rank as the #1 (Crooks) and #3 (Dressel) swimmers in history in the event.

    Brian Benzing and Molly Hannis lead the 50 breast fields, and world record holder Regan Smith has some serious competition in the 100 back from 50 back co-champions Katherine Berkoff and Claire Curzan, as well as Rhyan White and Isabelle Stadden.

    Luke Hobson and Katie Ledecky are the top seeds in the 200 freestyle events, although Kieran Smith, Simone Manuel, and Aimee Canny will push them. Gretchen Walsh is back in the water as she doubles up with the 50 fly, while Caeleb Dressel is the top seed in the men’s event, although #5 seed Tyler Ray has won both fly events so far and beat Dressel head-to-head in the 100 fly this morning.
