WOMEN’S 50 FREESTYLE – FINALS
- B1G Champs Record – 21.28, Zhesi Li (2018)
- B1G Conference Record –
- NCAA ‘A’ Cut – 21.66
Top 3:
- Maggie MacNeil (MICH) – 21.32
- Amy Fulmer (OSU) – 21.71
- Jasmine Nocentini (NU) – 21.78
As she took her first stroke, there was little doubt Michigan’s Maggie MacNeil was well on her way to winning yet another Big Ten title. MacNeil had the fastest reaction time on the start and the best underwaters in the field, breaking out shoulders ahead of field. She touched in 21.32, her fastest of the season, and just off her personal best of 21.17, and the Big Ten meet record of 21.28.
Michigan also grabbed a 4th place finish from freshman Lindsay Flynn (21.94), dipping under 22 seconds for the first time in her career.
Why fully resting for a conference meet?
Peak when it matters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello, why would any elite swimmer rest for a club meet?
If she fully tapered for sc worlds idk why she would rest at all for this
Normally I’d say, yeah, whatever, when someone says they didn’t rest. But after seeing her swims in prime time international competition, including that recent insane 50 SCM back, I gotta believe her. Shapes up to be some crazy races at NCAAs.
