Olympic athlete in swimming
POPULARITY
Olympic silver medalist and perennial Team USA member Rhyan White decided to shake things up going into 2024 by leaving Alabama and joining the Wolfpack Pro squad at NC State alongside NCAA champion and World Championship gold medalist Katherine Berkoff and rising NC State star Kennedy Noble. Together forming arguably the best backstroke group in the world, Rhyan White is betting that the rising Tide (wink) will lift all boats and deliver success yet again next summer at Trials and the Olympic Games in Paris. But Rhyan White and her new teammates have a difficult path ahead, as the women's backstroke events might be the most difficult to make the USA team, but since we're betting Rhyan will again provide Team USA with veteran experience, we're also betting she steps onto the podium and makes 2024 a year full of hardware. Enjoy!

200 BACK FINALS NCAA Record: Beata Nelson (Wisconsin), 1:47.24 – 2019 American Record: Regan Smith, 1:47.16 – 2019 U.S. Open Record: Regan Smith, 1:47.16 – 2019 Meet Record: Beata Nelson (Wisconsin), 1:47.24 – 2019 2019 Champion: Beata Nelson (Wisconsin), 1:47.24 2020 Top Performer: Rhyan White (Alabama), 1:48.06 Top 3 Phoebe Bacon (Wisconsin) – 1:48.32 Rhyan White (Alabama) – 1:48.99 Isabelle Stadden (Cal) – 1:49.66 This was a fantastic race, as Katharine Berkoff of NC State, Rhyan White of Alabama and Phoebe Bacon of Wisconsin all took it out within tenths of each other. Pushing into the third 50, though, Bacon really charged, and she was able to hold onto that pace through the exciting final 50. Bacon hits her first sub-1:50 ever, becoming the third-best NCAA freshman ever at 1:48.32. That keeps the Wisconsin 200 back streak alive after Beata Nelson won in 2019. White was also under 1:49, hitting a 1:48.99, not quite able to come back on Bacon but picking up big points for Alabama before their huge 100 free. Cal freshman Isabelle Stadden was third in 1:49.66, while youth continued to reign; Virginia Tech freshman Emma Atkinson was fourth in 1:50.43 ahead of Virginia freshman Reilly Tiltmann (1:50.66).
