Auckland swimmer Corey Main has qualified for July's Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
The Howick Pakuranga swimmer, who is on a scholarship at the University of Florida, slipped under the qualifying time in the 100m backstroke at the national championships in West Auckland today.
Main, 19, produced a personal best 54.47 seconds to head the qualifiers for the final, with Dunedin's Kurt Crosland just 0.3s outside the qualifying mark for Glasgow.
Main also qualified for the 200m freestyle final, which was headed by Coast's Steven Kent in 1min 49.52s.
Defending champion and national record holder Matthew Stanley was third fastest - the pair being separated by Australian-based North Shore swimmer Mitchell Donaldson, in a personal best 1:50.04.
Glenn Snyders, who has already qualified in the 100m and 200m breaststroke, was fastest in heats of the 50m breaststroke in 27.87s as he chases a clean sweep of titles this week.
Another qualifier Samantha Lucie-Smith (Capital) topped the heats in the 100m freestyle in 56.03s from Laura Quliter (North Shore) in 56.78s.
