After some fast swims in the 1500 on night one, the second finals session of the 2018 TYR Pro Swim Series from Columbus, Ohio will feature the 100 Fly, 400 Free, 200 Breast and 100 Free.

Michael Andrew and Margo Geer led the way this morning after posting the fourth fastest 100 Free times by Americans in 2018. Kelsi Dahlia, Leah Smith, Felix Auboeck and Justin Ress, all familiar names to the TYR Pro Swim Series circuit, earned top seeds in the 100 Fly, 400 Free and 100 Free.

Annie Lazor and Lousiville’s Evgenii Somov posted the top times in the 200 breaststroke but will have heavy challenges from the likes of Lilly King, Chase Kalisz, Reece Whitley and more.
