Siobhan-Marie O’Connor, who already upset Fran Halsall in the 100 free, locked down her spot on the Olympic roster with a win in the women’s 200-meter IM.

O’Connor raced her way to victory in a 2:09.66, cleared the British Olympic qualifying time of 2:10.19. That swim also moved her from fourth in the world (2:10.32) to second behind only Katinka Hosszu’s 2:07.69 from the Golden Tour.

Hannah Miley cranked out a second-place time of 2:12.02, while Aimee Willmott took third in 2:12.57.

Molly Renshaw (2:14.32), Emily Jones (2:15.44), Constance Dean (2:15.64), Candice Hall (2:16.10) and Beth Aitchison (2:19.19) finished fourth through eighth.
