This evening at the 2019 TYR Pro Series in Bloomington, Jay Litherland climbed from his fourth-place seed to prove victorious in the men’s 200 IM final. Posting a 2:00.64, Litherland topped off his sweep of the IM events, taking down Will Licon (2:02.03) and Vini Lanza (2:02.75) in the process. Sam Stewart was just outside the top three with his 2:02.90, enough to edge out Mohamed Samy (2:03.61). Crowd-favorite Michael Daly brought in the next wave, crashing the pads with a 2:05.06 to overtake Jacob Steele (2:05.78). Eric Knowles topped off a climactic A final with a 2:06.48 of his own.
