Summer McIntosh to swim in 400 free ‘B’ final after missing ‘A’ final
Summary

Summer McIntosh will compete in the 400 free 'B' final tonight at the Pan Pacific Championships in Irvine, California, after placing 9th in the morning heats. She added 13 seconds to her season best, finishing behind Lani Pallister and Fan Yaqi. Although McIntosh posted the fastest 400 free time this year, her performance in the heats means she missed qualifying for the 'A' final. McIntosh will also have the opportunity to race for gold in the 200 IM tomorrow, following a less competitive meet compared to her previous championship outings.
