Final likelihood meets are underway, giving swimmers one final crack at incomes an NCAA qualification time.
On the Notre Dame Final Likelihood Meet, a quartet of Louisville swimmers put up some occasions that can doubtless earn invitations to the NCAA Championships in March.
Cardinal junior Rye Ulett swam the 200 again, an occasion she’s earned an NCAA invitation in for the previous two years. She put up a time of 1:53.43 in prelims to leap from thirty fifth to twenty fifth within the rankings this season. The ladies’s cutline was row 39 for the previous two years (learn extra on what which means right here), so whereas her time was slower than the 2023 invited time (1:53.34), it appears doubtless Ulett will make one other NCAA look later this March.
Her older sister, Tristen Ulett, additionally competed. She swam a 100 fly time trial Friday morning, clocking 52.04 to sit down in a precarious thirty eighth this season. Her greatest time is over a second quicker (51.02), set in 2022, however she did take an enormous chunk out of her earlier season greatest with that swim (52.72). Ulett has one other likelihood to take a swing on the 100 fly within the precise occasion on Saturday.
Shifting to the lads’s meet, Gustavo Saldo clocked a private greatest within the 200 fly to fit in at sixteenth this season (1:41.49). That lowered his greatest time from 2022 by a number of tenths (1:41.80), and slashed over a second off his season greatest that he first swam on the Louisville v. Kentucky twin, and replicated final weekend at ACCs (1:42.86). The boys’s cutline fell round 30 final 12 months, so Saldo seems to be in a comparatively protected place.
Rounding out the doubtless qualifiers is Louisville senior Dalton Lowe, who has been a key member of the Cardinals’ NCAA relays for the previous few years. Lowe clocked 45.30 within the 100 fly, shaving three-hundredths of a second off his season greatest. He strikes up from twenty third to a tie for twenty second, however like T. Ulett has an opportunity to take a crack at it once more on Saturday.
