A highlight from the session: A swim-off was required in the 50 Freestyle to determine who would be in the “B: Final, they had tied in prelims at 20.13 seconds. They competed in their swim-off and tied AGAIN at, you guessed it, 20.13 seconds. They rested for 30 minutes and swam another swim off, this time the swimmer from Purdue was the clear winner 20.11 to 20.23 and went on to swim in the evening finals. Great Drama!

Friday's prelims required two more swim offs!

Finals at 6:30 PM!
