Hansson’s swim doesn’t bump Bray down a spot, she was already faster

Be interesting what ages each of these Top 10 where when they achieved these times. Isn’t Hansson 22 and Bray just a junior in High School (17?)?

But note these are just their fastest times, not all of their times. A lot of these swimmers have swam 49s or low 50s a few times, some in different years when they were younger (of course none under 19)

Yes, hence why the article says performers, not performances.

Dude. I thought Torri Huske’s 51.2 was impressive (granted Huske is a sophomore)
