There was no 4x100 team but think we have a team for the 4x200
Dougie came the closest at 49.5 with Calvin at 49.8. Unfortunately Clayton Jimmy (top seed at 49.2) didn't live up to expectations. Scary when you see the young ones like Chalmers and Dressel dropping 47s and 48s at willWe have a really bad year for 100m freestyle, which is weird, because traditionally its a event that we are really strong in.
If you look at 100m times, you have to be able to break 48sec to be competitive, and its quite sad that we didnt even have 1 swimmer that could break 49sec at our nationals.
Even more worrying, this will have quite a bad impact on our 4x100m medley relay, as we have a great contenders in the Back (Chris Reid), Breast (Cam), Fly (Chad), but no one to swim the free?
