On the second night of the trials at Lucas Oil Stadium, Carson Foster made up for the disappointment of 2021, when he just missed out on the Olympics, with a victory in the men’s 400-meter individual medley. Following the same strategy, Walsh went out strong again in the final and was under her world-record pace at the turn.
The first final of the night produced another first-time Olympian when Foster knocked off Tokyo gold medalist Chase Kalisz. The 22-year-old Foster, a native of Cincinnati who swan collegiately at Texas, led the entire race to finish in 4 minutes, 7.64 seconds.
