Six women opted not to swim the 50 fly tonight, with Torri Huske, Erika Pelaez, and Liberty Clark all choosing to swim the 100 free A-final instead. They are the 7th, 8th, and 5th seed, respectively. Kristina Paegle and Anna Peplowski have likewise chosen the 100 free over the 50 fly, where they’re the 9th and 12th seeds for tonight.
On the men’s side, the only scratches come from the 100 breast, where American record holder Michael Andrew has decided to swim the 50 fly. He’ll be in lane 5 for that event tonight. Charlie Egeland has also scratched out of the 100 breast, which means his meet has come to an end.
INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department has installed a new public safety camera in downtown Indy.
The camera is positioned at the intersection of W Washington Street and N Illinois Street. It’s the third camera installed along Washington Street in the last three months.
IMPD Downtown District Commander Shane Foley told FOX 59 that they’ve had a lot of success with these cameras so far in identifying suspects involved in crimes.
“We’ve been able to make arrests because the cameras are there,” Foley said. “If the cameras weren’t there, there are certain situations we would not be able to make arrests.”

The area of Washington and Illinois Streets is one of the most travelled parts of downtown Indianapolis. Foley said adding a camera in this spot emphazies it’s importance.
“It’s important to have this tool to monitor activity,” said Foley, adding that the camera offers them five different angles of surveillance.
The streams from the cameras are monitored by IMPD’s real-time crime center and officers on the streets. Officers can be alerted to incidents from the video before 911 is called.
The Conrad Hotel funded the installation of the camera. They’re hoping the investment will help officers patrol the area and make the city safer.
Watch as Lucas Oil Stadium builds a pool for the USA Olympic swim team trials
Indianapolis is hosting the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials at Lucas Oil Stadium this year from June 15-23. According to USA Swimming’s website, this is the first time the event will be staged on a football field.
Kate Douglass set a new world record in the women’s 50-meter freestyle at the TYR Pro Swim Series.

INDIANAPOLIS — Five-time Olympic gold medalist Kate Douglass made history Friday night at the TYR Pro Swim Series, becoming the fastest woman ever in the 50-meter freestyle.

“I think I’m still in shock,” Douglass said during a post-race interview. “I don’t know what to say.”
The crowd erupted as Douglass looked up at the scoreboard, taking in the significance of her swim. She edged teammate Gretchen Walsh, who finished second in 23.78. Walsh’s time also bettered the previous American record of 23.91, which she and Douglass had shared, but it wasn’t enough to catch Douglass’ world-record performance.
“(I) did not expect a world record in 50 free like ever in my life,” she said.
Known more for her success in the 200-meter breaststroke, where she owns the American record and won Olympic gold, Douglass has built a reputation as one of the sport’s most versatile swimmers. Her latest accomplishment came in one of swimming’s purest sprint events, further showcasing her range.
“I think I just nailed the breakout and I just really accelerated toward the finish,” Douglass said. “I think it’s cool to be able to swim a bunch of different things.”

The swim may also alter her plans for the remainder of the season.
“I don’t think I was planning on doing the 50 free much this summer in August,” Douglass said. “Now maybe we’re rethinking that.”
