Still standing was the 1:31.20 that he clocked in the 200 free on March 24, 2006. Not only had no one swum faster in that pool, but nobody had ever gone faster, period.<\/p>\n<p>That U.S. Open record survived the suit era and repeated attempts on its existence from the likes of <strong>Ricky Berens<\/strong>, <strong>David Walters<\/strong>, <strong>Scot Robison<\/strong> and others. Even <strong>Michael Wynada<\/strong> could not take it down despite splitting a 1:30.60 on a relay for the Michigan Wolverines in 2014. No way, the oldest men\u2019s short course yards U.S. Open record and its accompanying pool mark finally meet an expiration date at this year\u2019s meet, right?<\/p>\n<p>Two days ago, no one would have dared argue with that statement. After every single Georgia Tech pool record went down at the women\u2019s meet last week, this mark looked like the safest bet to last through\u00a0the men\u2019s. (<strong>Peter Vanderkaay\u2019s<\/strong> 500 free pool record, also from 2006, ended up going untouched on Thursday.)<\/p>\n<p>But two days into the meet, much has changed. Texas freshman <strong>Townley Haas<\/strong> posted the fastest split ever on the Longhorns\u2019 record-setting 800 free relay on Wednesday, completing his eight laps in 1:30.52. He backed that up with an impressive win in the 500 free on Thursday, his 4:09.00 moving him up to fifth on the all-time list in the event.<\/p>\n<p>But flat start, Haas\u2019 best time remains the 1:33.19 which he is entered in for this meet, good for the ninth seed. He will need a big drop from that, but he did just knock off three-and-a-half seconds off his 500 free time in Thursday\u2019s final. And he will have competition for the win from the likes of <strong>Simonas Bilis<\/strong>, <strong>Blake Pieroni<\/strong> and last year\u2019s runner-up, <strong>Anders Nielsen<\/strong>, among others, but this freshman looks like the real deal and a virtual lock to challenge Burnett\u2019s time at some point during his four years in burnt orange.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Jack-and-Joe show\u2026 plus Caeleb.<\/strong> One year ago, Texas\u2019 <strong>Joseph Schooling<\/strong> edged out teammate <strong>Jack Conge<\/strong>r for the 100 fly NCAA title, 44.51 to 44.55, and Schooling also got the better off Conger in the 200 fly at that meet. The rivalry between the two teammates has not stopped there; Conger even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/jack-conger-not-satisfied-with-performance-at-nationals-video-interview\/\">admitted<\/a> at this summer\u2019s U.S. Nationals that despite his impressive 51.33 in the 100 fly, he was unhappy he could not surpass the 50.96 Schooling swam at the World Championships to earn a bronze medal.<\/p>\n<p>Today that rivalry gets cranked up a few notches. First off, <strong>Austin Staab\u2019s<\/strong> American and U.S. Open record might be in play this year, especially after Schooling\u2019s blistering 43.34 relay split on Texas\u2019 victorious 400 medley relay. And secondly, they might have some company in the form of Florida\u2019s <strong>Caeleb Dressel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Dressel is the only non-Texas swimmer so far to win a race at NCAAs, and it took an American record to do so, as Dressel clocked an 18.20 to win the 50 free on Friday night. Dressel enters the 100 fly with a seed time of 44.80, but with stiff competition he should be able to pull out at least a few more tenths. He has already shown that he has more power than any other swimmer in the world, and that does translate to a 100 fly short course, but does he have the endurance to hold his stroke together down the last 25?<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a race of the meet, Thursday night\u2019s 200 IM might be tough to beat. If you need a refresher, <strong>Will Licon<\/strong> touched out <strong>Josh Prenot<\/strong> by a tenth of a second, with <strong>Ryan Murphy<\/strong> just behind. All three moved into the top-five all-time in the event. But if any race this weekend is going to surpass the IM on the scale of epic finishes, the 100 fly is your best bet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By David Rieder Simon Burnett now coaches at the University of the Pacific, and last week he returned to the McAuley Aquatic Center at Georgia Tech for the women\u2019s NCAA<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":192114,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3,6,17],"tags":[56784],"class_list":["post-192123","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-college","category-commentary","tag-2016-ncaa-division-i-mens-championships"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.3 (Yoast SEO v24.3) -
