Ryan Murphy got a good push from Cal teammate Jacob Pebley in the 200 back final on Saturday night in Santa Clara with a 1:57.09 to Pebley’s 1:57.41. Those two were the class of the field, and will be the favorites headed into Indianapolis later this summer at the World Championship Trials. Both of those guys have already swum 1:55’s earlier this year, so they were a little off tonight. Grigory Tarasevich was third at 1:59.41.

Andy Song (2:01.68), Corey Main (2:02.87), Maxime Rooney (2:03.15), Richard Bohus (2:04.43), Curtis Ogren (2:04.99) and Abrahm DeVine (DQ) all swam in the A-final.
