Matea Samardzic Earns 800 Free Trials Cut to Open Buffalo Sectionals

By Cathleen Pruden, Swimming World College Intern

Long course Speedo Sectional swimming began in Buffalo this evening with timed finals of the women’s 800 freestyle and the men’s 1500 freestyle. One swimmer has already punched her ticket to Olympic Trials in Omaha through the first night of action!

Matea Samardzic of Scarlet Aquatics won the 800 freestyle in a time of 8:49.13. The 21 year old dropped seven seconds to just clear the Olympic Trials cut of 8:49.99. Second place went to Natalie Ward of Berkeley Aquatics in a time of 8:55.01, a two second drop for the 17 year old. Victor Swim Club’s Makayla Sargent rounded out the top three in an 8:55.19. She dropped 12 seconds in that swim. Samardzic and Sargent were both out quickly, in times of 4:21.64 and 4:21.13. Samardzic swam a stronger back half, including a pair of 1:06s in the final two one hundreds to close out the swim, and propel her to the Trials cut.
