After finishing fourth in the morning prelims, Zach Apple came back strong in the night’s 100 freestyle final to edge fellow Indiana swim mate Blake Pieroni 48.76 to 48.86. Robert Howard, representing the University of Alabama, was third. Nathan Adrian hung with the crowd, touching 4th in 49.31 in his first final back in the pool. Ali Khalafalla also got under 50 seconds, posting a 49.68 and taking 5th.

“This morning, I felt pretty smooth and controlled, so I knew I’d be faster tonight,” said Apple, who transferred to Indiana last summer for his senior year. “I just wanted to let the finals environment take me through the first 25, and then try to turn on the guns there and then try and go an extra over the last 15 and see what I can do.”
