We were supposed to have a close meet, and instead, St. Thomas left the meet with a 200-point lead. This gap was the result of a favorable convergence for St. Thomas.<\/p>\n<p>While Warren Melton and Tom Osmolak\u2019s wins in the 400 IM and 100 backstroke respectively were clutch swims for UST, the Oles\u2019 meet was wrought with misfortune.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Tanner Roe was slated to win the 200 freestyle, and he ended up placing\u00a017th. Mike Gratz was swimming on a fractured foot. Scott Hodgson led the 3M diving in the morning, but was powered past by St. Thomas freshman Andrew Grabowski at night.<\/p>\n<p>Our congratulations to UST\u2019s new head coach Scott Blanchard and all of his swimmers on an astounding meet.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_124539\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/tommies.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-124539\" data-attachment-id=\"124539\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/miac-championships\/tommies\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/tommies.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1274,847\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"tommies\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;tommies&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: MIAC Swimming&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/tommies-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/tommies-1024x681.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-124539\" src=\"http:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/tommies-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"tommies\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-124539\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: MIAC Swimming<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>Gustavus Women Withstand\u00a0Threat from St. Thomas<\/h2>\n<p>For the women, the surprise came from how close St. Thomas was to overthrowing Gustavus. At the end of session 1, the teams were tied at 240 points and by the end of the second day St. Thomas was only 15.5 points behind. The last session is where Gustavus pulled through and widened the gap to 41.5 points to take the win.<\/p>\n<p>St. Thomas nipped at GAC\u2019s heels throughout the meet because of their impressive depth in many of the events. Although Gustavus had eleven first place finishes, St. Thomas had many swimmers in both the top and bottom eight of every event. St. Thomas\u2019 newest swimmer, Emma Paulson, won all three of her individual events (50 free &#8211; 22.99, 100 back &#8211; 55.33, 200 back &#8211; 2:00.13) and significantly sped up relays which contributed to the meet&#8217;s suspense.<\/p>\n<p>Most other races went as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/miac-championship-5-races-watch\/\">we had predicted last week<\/a>. The 500 freestyle was a fight between Gustavus senior Jennifer Strom and St. Olaf junior Maddie Lee, but Strom pulled out a strong finish that was good enough for the win (5:02.53). Lee was only a second behind with a 5:03.56.<\/p>\n<p>The 200 backstroke was an exciting event. The top three seeds (Paulson, Wetzel, and Hayley Booher) had a race of their own while the rest of the field battled it out for the remaining spots.<\/p>\n<h2>Top 3 Sweeps<\/h2>\n<p>There were two 1-2-3 finishes at this meet, both on the men\u2019s side. While it may be easy to predict event winners, especially with standouts like Gustavus\u2019 Zac Solis and Jenny Strom in competition, for a team to take all of the top three spots in an event says a lot about the strength of their program.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the first night, Carleton College\u2019s Stephen Grinich, Evan Lahr, and George McAneny claimed the top three spots in the 50 free. These three were the only ones in the conference to dip below 21 seconds in the 50 free. Their dominance carried over to the 200 freestyle relay, which Carleton won in 1:22.79.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the final night, the University of St. Thomas took the top three spots in the 200 butterfly. MIAC record-holder Mike Lanz led the way, followed by Bailey Biwer and Melton Warren, who have been important contributors to St. Thomas\u2019 strong freshman class.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Men\u2019s Team Scores:<\/strong><br \/>\n1.
