Cal’s Jacob Pebley got a bit of an early challenge from Louisville’s Grigory Tarasevich and Tucson Ford’s Matt Grevers in the 200 back final, but he ended up pulling well ahead of the field to win easily. Pebley touched in 1:57.03, short of his world No. 4-ranked time of 1:55.85 from March.
Tarasevich finished second in 1:59.39, and Mason Manta Rays’ Carson Foster took third in 2:00.60. Foster, 16 years old and a sophomore in high school, swam in a lane next to Grevers, now 33 years old.
Making a rare 200 back appearance, Grevers ended up fourth in 2:01.89, ahead of Louisville’s Nicolas Albiero (2:02.25), Alex Boratto (2:02.66), Indiana’s Jacob Steele (2:04.58) and David Fridlander (2:09.23).
