There have been several major scratches from the last session at the TYR Pro Swim Series in Indianapolis, including three #1 seeds.
Katie Drabot had a very impressive PB this morning in the women’s 200 fly, going 2:08.38 which made her the top qualifier for the final. She has scratched out, as has her Stanford teammate Ella Eastin, who was going in 3rd.
Both have also dropped the 200 IM, where Eastin was the top seed in 2:12.97. Also dropping from the A-final were 5th seed Allie Szekely and 7th seed Asia Seidt, while Drabot (9th) and Lisa Bratton (10th) are both out of the B-final.
Justin Ress of Wolfpack Elite is also out as a #1 seed after leading the men’s 100 back prelims in 54.46. Other scratches tonight include Reece Whitley, Gunnar Bentz and Jay Litherland. Check out the full list of ‘A’ and ‘B’ final scratches below:
- Katie Drabot, 1st, W 200 Fly
- Ella Eastin, 3rd, W 200 Fly
- Gunnar Bentz, 7th, M 200 Fly
- Jay Litherland, 8th, M 200 Fly
- Reece Whitley, T-2nd, M 100 BR
- Marat Amaltdinov, 11th, M 100 BR
- Justin Ress, 1st, M 100 BK
- Ella Eastin, 1st, W 200 IM
- Allie Szekely, 5th, W 200 IM
- Asia Seidt, 7th, W 200 IM
- Katie Drabot, 9th, W 200 IM
- Lisa Bratton, 10th, W 200 IM
- Nic Fink, 11th, M 200 IM
Why fly to a meet like this if you’re gonna scratch. Ress could have gone to Atlanta and swam against good competition and been much closer to home.
Guess Ress wants to make his flight, since he missed his flight to the meet.
I am not making excuses for them but maybe some of them have doubles and with only A and B heats going, there isn’t much time between swims for those doubling. Have no idea about the Stanford ladies
You forgot to mention that Wilson Beckman (the Midwestman) got scratched into the A Final tonight! Great Swimmer who plays GREAT music!
Look at the bright side, Ledecky will apparently still swim the 800m.
🙁
Why bother having a pro series of the pros aren’t going to swim?
This was a pattern before the Rio Olympics for a few of the pros…all out swims in prelims and a scratch in the finals. Remember? Standford has the school excuse…they finish their finals in June.
Yes but tomorrow is Sunday. Not a school day
That’s not how college works.
Finals are right around the corner for the Stanford swimmers. We’re lucky they’re even here.
Wtf
Seriously. Is there a storm coming? All have a plane to catch?
Stanford might have finals
