NBAC’s Chase Kalisz snagged his second title of the meet with a win in the men’s 200-meter fly at the 2016 Arena Pro Swim Series Orlando.

Kalisz hit the wall in a time of 1:57.93 to move up to 12th in the world rankings, and the top American as he is now ahead of Tyler Clary’s 1:58.29 from the Austin stop of the Arena Pro Swim Series.

Gator’s Sebastien Rousseau put up a second-place time of 1:59.34 as the only other sub-2:00 swim of the night. California’s Tom Shields closed out the top three with a time of 2:00.08 after a 1:59.36 in prelims.

Brazil’s Marco Oliveira (2:00.44), Nashville’s Dakota Hodgson (2:00.53), Bobby Bollier (2:01.29), California’s Adam Hinshaw (2:01.46) and Club Wolverine’s Michael Flach (2:01.63) also swam in the finale.

Missouri’s Mack Darragh raced his way to the B final win in 2:00.56. Kaan Ozcan placed second in the consolation heat with a 2:01.42.
