World record-holder Tom Malchow won the 200 fly in 1:56.87, tiring the second half of the race after making a run at his own 1:55.18 world record, set this summer. Malchow, 23 and swimming for Wolverine, was .55 under world record pace at the 50 and .48 under at the 100.
\nWhile 1996 200 fly Olympic silver medalist Malchow's win was no surprise, the star of the race was Michael Phelps, who surged on the last 50 to pass several swimmers and move into second at the touch, beating out Auburn's Jeff Somensatto 1:57.48 to 1:58.07. At 15, Phelps is the youngest man to make the team since 1932. He represents North Baltimore.
\nBehind Somensatto was Andrew Mahaney (1:58.45), in fifth Steve Brown (1:58.56), sixth Eric Donnelly (2:00.62), seventh Doak Finch (2:00.90) and eighth Matthew Pierce (2:01.69).<\/p>\n
