Australia’s Clyde Lewis<\/strong> captured the men’s 200-meter IM at the 2015 FINA World Junior Championships.<\/p>\n

Lewis turned in a top time of 2:00.15 as no one else could even come closer than a second in the finale.<\/p>\n

Spain’s Hugo Gonzalez<\/strong> initially looked to have placed second in 2:01.88, but drew a disqualification in the event.<\/p>\n

Hungary’s Daniel Sos<\/strong> wound up second officially with a time of 2:01.78, while USA’s Sean Grieshop<\/strong> slid up to bronze with a third-place time of 2:01.83.<\/p>\n

Canada’s Javier Acevedo<\/strong> (2:01.91), Russia’s Nikolai Sokolov<\/strong> (2:02.98) and Great Britain’s Martyn Walton<\/strong> (2:03.11) finished fourth through seventh.<\/p>\n

In his fourth final of the night, USA’s Michael Andrew<\/strong> finished last in 2:06.54 as the workload obviously took a lot out of him. \u00a0Andrew led the way in prelims with a top-seeded time of 1:59.86 that also was the top time by an 18-and-under this year.<\/p>\n
