On the women’s side, a slew of winners from the course of the weekend headline the final day. Julia Cook of the Aggies Swim Club, who was tonight’s champion in the 100 backstroke, is seeded first in the 50 freestyle and fourth in the 200 IM. Nation’s Capital’s Phoebe Bacon will be a strong contender in the 50 backstroke, as will Long Island’s Kristin Romano, who is also seeded first in the 200 IM. The women’s mile also looks to be interesting. Madison Homovich of Marlins of Raleigh holds the top seed, but Club Wolverine’s Sierra Schmidt, who won the 1000 earlier this week, will race in the second heat of the afternoon because she is entered with a long course time. The women will compete in the 50 backstroke, 200 IM, 50 freestyle, and 1650 freestyle.
