Every day of the U.S. Olympic Team Trials—Swimming presented by Lilly, a record has been broken. Tonight, while eleven athletes punched tickets to the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, Matt Fallon (Warren, N.J./University of Pennsylvania) broke the American record in the men’s 200-meter breaststroke, and the crowd, with 22,209 attendees, reset the record for the largest swim ever.   

To kick off the night, Kate Douglass (Pelham, N.Y./ New York Athletic Club), Torri Huske (Arlington, Va./Arlington Aquatic Club), Gretchen Walsh (Nashville, Tenn./University of Virginia), and Simone Manuel (Sugar Land, Texas/Sun Devil Swimming) secured spots on the women’s 4x100m freestyle relay. Immediately following, the 17-year-old up-and-comer Thomas Heilman (Crozet, Va./Cavalier Aquatics/Piedmont Family YMCA) added his name to the Olympic Team roster with a first-place finish in the men’s 200m butterfly.

Katie Ledecky (Bethesda, Md./Gator Swim Club) added another event to her 2024 Paris lineup by winning the 1500m freestyle.

The evening concluded with the men’s 100m freestyle final, where first-time Olympians Chris Guiliano (Douglassville, Pa./University of Notre Dame) and Jack Alexy (Mendham, N.J./California Aquatics) touched 1-2, followed by former world record holder Caeleb Dressel (Green Cove Springs, Fla./Gator Swim Club) and Tokyo Olympian Hunter Armstrong (X). The quartet will compose the men’s 4x100m freestyle relay in Paris this summer.

Including open water and pool swimming events, USA Swimming has confirmed 27 athletes to the Paris Games. View all athletes here.

Ledecky on swimming in an NFL stadium: “It's been awesome. I think it blew away all of our expectations. It's just really neat to walk out of that tunnel every night for finals, or even for prelims races, and hear the excitement that everyone has. To see little kids in the stands with posters and big smiles and cheering really loud, I mean, that's what it's all about. It's really neat that we're chasing our dreams and pursuing these big goals, and just as a by-product of that, we're inspiring some of these little kids.
