    Katerine Savard of Quebec City broke the Canadian record in the women’s 100 butterfly on Friday at the Canadian World Trials. Savard, 17, clocked 57.97 seconds to eclipse the previous national mark of 58.67 set by Audrey Lacroix in July 2009. It was also the fifth fastest time in the world this year and she beat her personal best by one second. “I’m really proud with that performance,” said Savard. “It shows that I’m getting closer to the best in the world but I’ll have to swim even faster to get in the final at the world championships.” Source: swimming.ca.

    The competition, which started Wednesday, is determining Swimming Canada’s team for the 2011 FINA World Championships this summer in Shanghai, China. On Friday, the team list grew to 28 with one day of racing left.
