The Georgia men won handily with a score of 170-125. For the women, it marks their 95th-straight win at home, dating back to 1995. Today\u2019s meet was a reversal of last year\u2019s dual, where the Georgia men nearly lost to North Carolina, while the Georgia women easily won.<\/p>\n<h2>Georgia vs. North Carolina women\u2019s meet<\/h2>\n<p>Georgia and North Carolina each won eight women\u2019s events to keep the meet close today. North Carolina\u2019s victories in both relays were tough to overcome, but <strong>Brittany MacLean\u2019s<\/strong> tough racing schedule might have helped tip the scales in Georgia\u2019s favor. In addition to winning the 1000 free (9:42.40) and the 500 free (4:48.24), MacLean stepped up to race the 200 free about 15 minutes after her win in the 1000. She placed third with a 1:47.92, giving Georgia three crucial points.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hali Flickinger<\/strong> and <strong>Emily Cameron<\/strong> were also big contributors to the win for the Bulldogs, winning three individual events each. Flickinger won the 200 free with a 1:46.65, holding off UNC\u2019s <strong>Allyn Hardesty<\/strong> and her 1:47.35. Flickinger returned to win the 200 butterfly in 1:56.85 with teammate <strong>Megan Kingsley<\/strong> second with a 1:58.93. Flickinger used a powerful final 50 yards to pull away from UNC\u2019s <strong>Helen Moffitt<\/strong> in the 200 back and win with a 1:54.24, while Moffitt was second with a 1:55.53.<\/p>\n<p>Cameron swept the breaststrokes and won the 200 IM for big points in the meet. She was involved in a close battle in all three events, with UNC\u2019s <strong>Katie Munch<\/strong> almost taking the 100 breast win. But Cameron rallied to take the event in 1:03.07 to Munch\u2019s 1:03.10. In the 200 breast, Cameron was challenged in the final 100 by teammate <strong>Annie Zhu<\/strong> after leading by eight tenths at the 100-yard mark. Cameron managed the win with a 2:14.26 to Zhu\u2019s 2:14.94.<\/p>\n<p>In the 200 IM, Kingsley used her butterfly prowess to gain a big lead over Cameron, who rallied on breaststroke to take over the lead and win with a 2:01.14 to Kingsley\u2019s 2:02.45.<\/p>\n<p>Moffitt was a double winner for UNC, taking the 100 back in a dominating 52.77 to win by two seconds over teammate <strong>Caroline Baldwin<\/strong>. She came back from the close loss in the 200 back to win the 100 fly with a 53.82, overtaking teammate <strong>Sarah Koucheki<\/strong> in the final stretch.<\/p>\n<p>Baldwin got a win of her own, taking the 50 free in 22.74 over 2014 NCAA champion <strong>Olivia Smoliga\u2019s<\/strong> 22.83. Smoliga also found herself second to a Tar Heel in the 100 free, as Hardesty posted a 49.77 to Smoliga\u2019s 49.95. <strong>Lauren Earp<\/strong> had the chance to make it a 1-2 finish for North Carolina in the 100 free, leading Smoliga at the turn, but settled for third with a 50.18.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elisa Dawson<\/strong> scored big points in diving for North Carolina, winning the 3-meter with 334.50 points and finishing second to teammate <strong>Maria Lohman<\/strong> on the 1-meter. Lohman scored 294.08 points to Dawson\u2019s 290.85.<\/p>\n<h2>Georgia vs. North Carolina Men\u2019s Meet<\/h2>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_148707\" style=\"width: 2409px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/gunnar-bentz-400-im-usa-swimming-nationals-2015-0642.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-148707\" data-attachment-id=\"148707\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/georgia-swimming-survives-north-carolinas-onslaught-in-dual-meet\/gunnar-bentz-400-im\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/gunnar-bentz-400-im-usa-swimming-nationals-2015-0642.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2399,1597\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Peter H.

The men won all but two events, with <strong>Zu Pigot<\/strong> winning the 100 fly in 47.33 and <strong>Ben Colley<\/strong> taking the first-place points in the 200 IM with a 1:49.73 while Georgia swam exhibition in that event.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gunnar Bentz<\/strong> and <strong>Michael Trice<\/strong> each won two events. Bentz took on teammate <strong>Matias Koski<\/strong>, the reigning 1650 freestyle NCAA champion, in the 200 free and managed to hold him off and win with a 1:37.50. Koski attempted to make a move on Bentz in the final 50, but fell short with a 1:37.61. <strong>Kevin Litherland<\/strong> gave Georgia a 1-2-3 finish with a 1:38.24 for third. <\/p>\n<p>Later in the meet, Bentz pulled away from teammate <strong>James Guest<\/strong> to win the 200 breast with a 2:00.56 to Guest\u2019s 2:01.22. Guest had won the 100 breast earlier in the meet with a 55.67 to show that, at least in dual meets, the team has the depth to rebound from the graduation of <strong>Nic Fink<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In the 50 free, Trice nearly cracked 20 seconds with a 20.01 to win the event over the 20.35 by UNC\u2019s <strong>Sam Lewis<\/strong>. Trice was the only swimmer under 45 seconds in the 100 free, taking the event with a 44.76.<\/p>\n<p>Two of the Litherland triplets won events today. <strong>Jay Litherland<\/strong> led a 1-2-3 finish in the 200 back with a 1:46.02 to win by two seconds over the 1:48.02 by <strong>Ty Stewart<\/strong>. <strong>Garrett Powell<\/strong> completed the top three with a 1:48.65.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kevin Litherland<\/strong> was able to beat brother <strong>Mick Litherland<\/strong> by two seconds in the 500 free with a 4:27.84 to Jay\u2019s 4:29.89.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Taylor Dale<\/strong> and Stewart led a 1-2 finish for Georgia in the 100 back, with Dale finishing first in 47.20 and Stewart not far behind with a 48.75. <strong>Pace Clark<\/strong> had a half second lead over Mick Litherland at the 150-yard mark of the 200 fly, but his 26.69 split in the final 50 yards widened the gap. Clark won with a 1:45.18 to Litherland\u2019s 1:46.46.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aidan Burns<\/strong> won his first college race, taking the 1000 free by a five-second margin with a
