Men’s 100 Breast

The men’s 100 breast final was one of the most star-packed fields of the night as the top three finishers posted times beneath Brendan Hansen’s 2011 pool record of 1:00.31. Leading the pack was 24-year-old Andrew Wilson, representing Longhorn Aquatics. Earlier in the day, Wilson had posted a sizzling 59.19 to move to second in the 2018 world rankings, and backed up that swift swim with a final time of 59.49 to be the only athlete beneath the one-minute mark.

Close on his heels was Race Pace Club’s Michael Andrew, finishing second overall with a time of 1:00.07.

Third place belonged to California Aquatics’ Josh Prenot and his time of 1:00.23, while fourth was scooped up by Nic Fink and his time of 1:00.61.

Felipe Lima, representing Tiger Elite Racing, posted a final time of 1:00.77 for fifth, just ahead of teammate Kevin Cordes and his 1:00.85.

Will Licon of Longhorn Aquatics and Cody Miller of Sandpipers of Nevada completed the top eight with times of 1:00.89 and 1:01.18.
