The world’s fastest 400m freestyler, Australia’s Ariarne Titmus has revealed she will have to change her game plan if she is to become only the second woman in history to successfully defend the Olympic 400m freestyle gold medal at next year’s Games in Paris.

Next week, Carmel High School will aim for a 37th consecutive Indiana state title in girls’ swimming and diving, and the Greyhounds could chase some national standards in that pursuit. In Carmel’s final tune-up meet before State, a Sectionals meet held at their home pool, the foursome of Berit Berglund, Molly Sweeney, Alex Shackell and Meghan Christman finished just over a second off the National High School record in the 200 medley relay.
