Virginia junior Alex Walsh captured the 400 IM NCAA title tonight, winning in a time of 3:57.24. That was a personal best for Walsh by 0.01 seconds, as she won the event in a 3:57.25 a year ago.
Walsh led for the whole race, getting out to a fast start, and holding on for the win. Walsh won the title by over two seconds, finishing ahead of teammate Ella Nelson who was second in a 3:59.54.
The Virginia junior now holds two of the six fastest times in history.

Man, I still feel for Ella Eastin. She just had such bad luck with international teams but she was so great. And, I know it’s controversial, but I’ll say it anyway: I think swimming for Meehan didn’t help.
Drops 0.01 in the 200 IM and 400 IM. Should we expect to see a 0.01 drop in the 200 fly as well?
PBs are PBs, amirite?
Missing sims and grimes
Are you relay guy burner account?
Where’s the video? Please 🙂
Alex just wanted her sister to do well in the 100 back event. Even if she doesn’t do well for the rest of this meet, G walsh with that performance is enough for Walshx2.
I really wish she trained for this event long course. I would love to see what she could do. He strength is her swimming, not her underwaters, so like her 200 IM LC, I think she could have something special in this event too.
Sims was faster with a 3:56 in December.
and grimes with a 3:57.0
Stop with the Sandpipers. They are at home training like pros. These women are in college and there is a lot more to this life than swimming. College swimming balances heavy college academic loads and swimming. Wait until they are in college to compare.
Congratulations to Alex.
they are talking about NCAA. derp.
