Day four of the 2016 NCSA Junior Nationals proved to be a night for showdowns with Margaret Aroesty and Kate Douglass dueling for first in the women’s 200 breast, followed by Reece Whitley and Jacob Montague keeping it close in the men’s 200 breast.
Aroesty led throughout the race, but a surge from 14-year-old Douglass made it a tight finish. Aroesty’s first 100 was a 1:12.16 over Douglass’ 1:13.94, but Douglass turned up the heat to split a 1:16.46 in the back half to nearly catch Aroesty. A win of 2:30.25 for Aroesty completed her sweep of the breaststroke events, while Douglass finished second with a 2:30.40. North Bay’s Halle Morris rounded out the top three with a time of 2:33.39.
Like Aroesty, Whitley cruised to an early lead in the first 100, splitting a 1:04.25 to lead the heat by almost two seconds, while Montague clocked a 1:06.03. Montague, who finished third after Whitley and Michael Andrew in both the 50 and 100 breaststrokes, cranked up the speed to all but catch Whitley, splitting a 1:09.07 to Whitley’s 1:10.72. Whitley finished first overall with a time of 2:14.97 over Montague’s 2:15.10.
