This is one of those strange situations where you would probably talk yourself into not picking against Hayes or Novelline coming into the year and then suddenly they are head-to-head. I’m going with Novelline because of having the faster lifetime best and having a team trophy to swim for. Hayes is a great all-around swimmer, but at the end of the day she isn’t as pure of a sprinter as Novelline is. I think past a 50 is when we will see Chow fade from the sectional taper and that’s why she dropped to 12th.
