Most Southeastern Conference teams wrapped up their regular seasons this past weekend. There were a number of interesting swims from many athletes across the conference.

Top Five Storylines

  1. Missouri’s Michael Chadwick wrapped up his dominant regular season. He won the 200-yard individual medley, 100-yard breaststroke and the 100-yard backstroke at the Tiger Invitational. At NCAA regular season meets this year, the U.S. National team member was undefeated in individual events.
  2. The Auburn women fell for the second week in a row. The No. 11 Tigers lost to No. 17 Wisconsin 158-141 in a tri-meet. Despite the loss to the Badgers, the Auburn women were able to beat Florida State. Last week No. 9 Florida knocked off the Tigers.
  3. Florida (No. 3 men, No. 9 women) continued to excel. Caeleb Dressel and Natalie Hinds led the Gators to wins over Tennessee (No. 12 men, No. 13). U.S. National Team member Sean Lehane won the 200-yard backstroke for Tennessee, remaining undefeated in the event on the season.
  4. The No. 1 Georgia women won their 100th straight win in Athens, Georgia with a win over Wisconsin. The Bulldogs finished the season 9-0. The team is led by coach Jack Bauerle.
  5. Kentucky and Vanderbilt were able to get back on track to end the regular season. Both teams lost their first meet of the weekend (Kentucky to Ohio State, Vanderbilt to Missouri), but they were about to finish up with wins. Vanderbilt beat Marshall and North Florida. Kentucky knocked off Cincinnati.

I would have thought UGA’s 100 straight home wins over 20 years would have been the number 1 listed thing in this article and not KY and Vandy….no offense to them.
