Pierce Dietze travelled up to the Irvine Grand Challenge to compete in the 50 meter backstroke. He had also qualified for events on Friday but didn't want to miss school (good decision). Pierce swam a best time in prelims which qualified him 4th going into finals. He dropped another 1.23 seconds in finals to move up to a 3rd place finish! His final time of 32.59 is a USA Swimming AAAA time and is worth 774 Hytek power points! He also broke his own team record. Once he learns to stop looking for the wall, he'll really be competitive!
