  • 4th - Ashley McGregor - 1:08.39


A&M recruit Ashley McGregor finished 4th in the A-final tonight! Among the swimmers she beat was Annamay Pierce (World Record Holder in the 200m Breast). Great showing for the Aggie-to-be!

Kyle Troskot through to the 100m free A-final in 7th.

Kendra Chernoff will compete in the B-final of the 200 fly tonight, she finished 10th in prelims.

200IM is starting now.

Julia 2nd in 200 IM in 2:15.50, top seed Morningstar in 2:14.2. Wilkinson has at least two seconds to trop on the breaststroke leg alone. Would guess both make Olympics.

Troskot has a legitimate shot at the team in finals. Because of Hayden's 47.95 from Worlds, the other three relay swimmers need to average 49.73's tonight to make it. Two are 49-low. That means it's wide open (50.1 and up) for that other spot. If Troskot can go a 50.0 and take 4th, he'd be in.

Tall task, but probably the 3rd-best chance of the rest of the A&M crew to make the team in Canada (after McGregor in the 200 breast, and Julia of course).

Chernoff into the B-Final in the 200 fly. Not as good of a swim as the 100.

Kyle finished 8th in the 100m Freestyle with a time of 50.66.. Didn't have a very good start off the blocks (.77 & about 1/2 a body behind on 1st stroke) & had to fight like hell to get back in it. Pulled even with 4th & 5th with about 30m to go, but just ran out of gas late. Top four made the relay.

Gutsy swim by Kyle. He'll be a top contender in 2016 if he sticks with it!

Jules Rules Again!

It wasn't a fast race (by Julia's standards) by any means, but she came from behind in the last 20m & got her hand on the wall first in the 200IM!! Her second Olympic berth thus far!!

Melanie Dodds also had a good swim, finishing 5th!

I'm loving that she's beating the girls that took her national records to get these wins. Her will to win is part of what makes her who she is -- which is damn good. Way to go Julia!

Finals will start at 6pm CST and the only two finals before hers are the men & women's 50 Free, so I would guess that she's gonna swim pretty quick. Probably your best bet to watch it starting at 6 pm.

Julia just didn't have enough gas to complete the sweep. She DID however, go a best time by a couple seconds, to claim the bronze medal!

Heck of a week by Jule, so so proud of her!
