Both Maceachern and Bell swam faster, but Hook’s time was still good for #3 seed heading into finals. She swam 4:10.57, which stood as the top time of the morning through the unseeded heats. She has a two second gap between her and the rest of the field, led by Stanford freshman Lucy Bell (4:10.38).īell’s teammate Charlotte Hookwas entered without a time and thus, swam in the first heat. The Bruin bettered the 4:09.49 that she swam at Ohio State’s midseason invite earlier this season. UCLA sophomore Paige Maceachernhad a big swim out of the first circle seeded heat, clocking a new personal best of 4:08.22 to qualify first for finals. PAC-12 Championship Record: 3:56.53, Katie Ledecky (STAN) - 2018 PAC-12 Championships.PAC-12 Record: 3:54.60, Ella Eastin (STAN) – 2018 NCAA Championships.NCAA Record: 3:54.60, Ella Eastin (STAN) – 2018 NCAA Championships.She’s in a similar position to Dobler, as her 1:43.11 seed time is over a second faster than the #2 seed, Cal freshman Kayla Wilsonat 1:44.35. Meanwhile, Ruck didn’t race the 200 free at PAC-12s last year, instead opting for the 100 back. There could be a similar gap this year, as Dobler is seeded at 56.94, almost two seconds clear of her teammate, #2 seed Isabelle Odgers. At this meet last year, Dobler won the 100 breast by over two seconds. In the middle of the session, two defending NCAA champions are the top seeds in their events– Taylor Ruckin the 200 free and Kaitlyn Doblerin the 100 breast. In the 100 fly, Sun Devil Lindsay Looneylikely won’t have the sprint speed to match Curzan and Huske, but after a two second drop in the 500 free, Looney is clearly dialed in and should be right in the middle of the action in that event. ASU had a big day yesterday, so watch for sophomore Charli Brown–the #4 seed–to make a move. Both raced in the 200 IM ‘A’ final on Day 2, with Polonsky winning the event and Bell taking fifth. The 400 IM top seed belongs to another Stanford freshman, Lucy Bell, whose seed time of 4:08.37 is just ahead of Leah Polonsky(4:08.91). In the 100 back, Curzan is the top seed, but Cal’s backstroke star Isabelle Staddenis sure to set herself up to take on the Cardinal Olympian in finals. In the 100 fly, she’s seeded second behind her teammate Torri Huske, the defending champion who took home the 50 free title last night. She’ll take on the 100 fly/100 backstroke double and she’s a title threat in both events. Meanwhile, Arizona will try and get back on track after having just one individual finals swim on Thursday: sophomore Alyssa Schwengel, who placed 21st in the 50 free.Īfter swimming the 50 freestyle exhibition yesterday, Stanford freshman Claire Curzancontests her first scoring individual races of the meet. Stanford has built up a substantial lead in the team race, with Cal and USC still battling for second place. It’s the third day of competition at the PAC-12 Championships in Federal Way, Washington with heats of the 400 IM, 100 fly, 200 free, 100 breast, and 100 back going off this session.
