2019 Canadian Swimming Trials: Sydney Pickrem Breaks Canadian Record
The final night of the 2019 Canadian Swimming Trials saw a Canadian record fall from Sydney Pickrem in the 200 IM final as she moved to fourth in the world rankings for 2019.

Mackenzie Padington was the only other swimmer to get under the FINA A Cut tonight with her win in the 800 free.
Women’s 150 IM Para
Aly Van Wyck-Smart won the 150 IM, which is an IM event without butterfly, with a 4:50.33. She is in a different classification than Nikita Ens (4:38.50) so she was presented with the win since she was closer to her classification’s world record than Ens was.
