Anton Ipsen Sweeps Distance Events in Knoxville with 1500 Win
In Ledecky fashion, Wolfpack Elite’s Anton Ipsen swept the distance events at the Knoxville Pro Swim Series with his dominant win in the 1500 freestyle (15:16.19). The time is right around what he swam in January of 2017 at this meet (15:13.45).
Tennessee teammates Taylor Abbott and Sam Rice had a much closer battle as they swam stroke-for-stroke through the 1400. Abbott ended up pulling away in the final 100 to take second in 15:42.72. Sandpipers’ Brennan Gravley had a strong final 400 meters to make up ground and pass Rice for the final podium spot in 15:43.77. Rice picked up the fourth spot in 15:44.59.
Connor Daniels finished fifth in the heat and eighth overall in 16:15.18. In the heat, he was followed by Raben Dommann (16:18.75) and Ryley McRae (16:34.09). Christian Bayo (fifth – 16:05.85), Sam Oliver (sixth – 16:10.46) and Owen Lloyd (seventh – 16:10.70) all made the top eight from the preliminary heats.
