WOMEN’S 100 BREAST FINALS
- PSS Record: 1:05.57, Rebecca Soni (USA), 2011
- U.S. Olympic Trials Cut: 1:10.99
- Lilly King, ISC, 1:07.14
- Kathleen Baker, TE, 1:08.44
- Rachel Bernhardt, GAME, 1:09.00
In just her second long course race of the season following this morning’s prelims, Lilly King took more than second off her heats swim in 1:07.14 to win the women’s 100 breast comfortably. King, 23, moves into 11th in the world for 2020-21.
Former 100 back world record holder Kathleen Baker was just four-tenths back of King on the opening 50 in 31.82, and held off the pure breaststrokers down the stretch to claim second in 1:08.44. That marks Baker’s second-best swim ever, having gone 1:07.90 back in March.
Rachel Bernhardt (1:09.00) out-touched Micah Sumrall (1:09.06) in a tight race for third. At the U.S. Open, the 25-year-old Bernhardt was just a few one-hundredths off her lifetime best in 1:07.67.
Great job, Lilly! Good set by Coach Cory Chitwood. He’s is doing an awesome job at IU and has turned out to be a perfect fit for our program. “We’re All For You!”

That escalated quickly
unsure how this set is sneaky though, ahould be pretty obvious its hard lol
Maybe after the 25s were completed, they were told only then about the 50s. After the 50s, told about the 75s. You get the idea.
Nice way to ring in 2021. The set was even worse for Cody, though. Lily attached a zip-tie to his goggles and it was dangling into his face the entire set. An added element of mental torture.
