December 18, 2011
Jessica won the 100 breaststroke at the 2011 Mutual of Omaha Duel in the Pool, setting the fastest swim the world has ever seen in a non-rubber swimsuit. She clocked a 1:03.33, upsetting the current World Champion & teammate Rebecca Soni for the win.
A few events later, Jessica swam to an American Record in the 4×100 freestyle relay with American teammates, Natalie Coughlin, Dana Vollmer & Missy Franklin. The team swam a time of 3:28.46.
Jessica also swam a new personal best in the 100 freestyle 52.55, ranking her 7th in the world for 2011. As well as a very solid 50 freestyle, finishing as the top American in the meet as well as for the entire year, with a 24.18.
This was Jessica’s last competition for the 2011 calendar year. She travels straight to Hawaii for a training trip, to begin preparations for a very exciting 2012. As we transition to the Olympic Year, Jessica would like to send a big thanks to you, her loyal supporters, for making all the difference as she prepares!
