The 2019 Speedo Sectional in Cary, North Carolina, wrapped up on Sunday with notable performances across the board, but no one could expect what was to come.
The highlight of the national swimming season thus far, Regan Smith reset the American record in the 200 back with a time of 1:47.16 in the biggest swim of her career. Breaking Kathleen Baker’s previous mark of 1:47.30 from the 2018 NCAA Championships, it appeared as if Smith’s breakout swim would be the grand finale of the meet — but not so fast. Smith had more left in the tank and decided to make record-breaking a pattern, taking down the 100 back American record leading off the 400 medley relay. She swam it in 49.66, one hundredth ahead of Beata Nelson‘s mark, set in November. History happened in Cary, NC, courtesy of a 17-year-old phenom.
Those weren’t the only records that fell on Sunday.
Claire Curzan started off the session by shattering the 13-14 age group record in the 100 free, previously held by the recently retired Missy Franklin. Ashley Twichell lowered the sectional record in the mile with an impressive swim for the 29-year-old.
The night’s events consisted of the 100 free, 1650 free, 200 back, 200 IM and 400 medley relay.
Women’s 100 Free
Tac Titans swimmer Claire Curzan started the final night off with a bang, cinching the national age-group record with a time of 47.67, lowering Missy Franklin’s mark by 0.27. The race was on for second with Titans swimmer Brooke Zettel (50.67) edging out her teammate Brooke Morgan (50.95).

Regan Smith did it yet again in the medley relay, turning all heads to the middle of the pool. At the final turn, spectators watched in awe as Smith surged home with increasing momentum. Merely an hour after her record-breaking 200, Regan Smith’s leadoff 100 backstroke broke Beata Nelson’s previous mark of 49.67 to cinch her second American record of the night. Propelling her team to a time of 3:43.30 for a second place finish, Smith made history yet again in the Triangle Aquatic Center.
