By David Rieder.<\/em><\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t exactly a quiet evening of swimming across the country Wednesday night as the second wave of Division I conference meets kicked off. The women\u2019s Pac-12 meet got most of the attention (something about a record and the fastest split in history), but today\u2019s notebook also features the Big 12 meet, the men\u2019s B1G championships and even the men\u2019s Ivy League.<\/p>\n

Why Stanford\u2019s 800 free relay can go even faster than the already-impressive 6:49.42<\/a>.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Oh, you might be thinking, they can just add Simone Manuel<\/strong>. Well, yes, head coach Greg Meehan<\/strong> could reasonably choose to do that. Manuel currently ranks second in the country in the 200 free at 1:41.90, which already would be a second-and-a-half improvement on Katie Drabot\u2019s<\/strong> split of 1:43.43.<\/p>\n

But most likely, that won\u2019t happen. (More on that below.) Lia Neal<\/strong>,\u00a0Drabot, Ella Eastin\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Katie Ledecky<\/strong> combined to become the first relay to go under 6:50, but none of the four swam out of their minds.\u00a0Neal, for instance, finished third in the 200 free at NCAAs last season in 1:42.58, much quicker than her 1:43.34 leadoff split from Wednesday night.\u00a0Eastin split 1:42.37 on the American record-setting relay, compared to 1:42.18 last season at NCAAs.<\/p>\n

And then there\u2019s Ledecky. She\u2019s the Olympic gold medalist in the 200 free and third-fastest performer in history in the long course version of the event. Can she get to Missy Franklin\u2019s<\/strong> flat start American record of 1:39.10? This season, probably not, but it\u2019s far from unreasonable to think Ledecky can split under 1:40 on this relay at NCAAs, particularly now that the event falls on the meet\u2019s first day.<\/p>\n

Manuel\u2019s lineup decision revealed?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

At conference and NCAA championships, each swimmer is limited to either three individual events plus four relays or all five relays but only two individual events. With Manuel among the national title favorites in the 50, 100 and 200 free, there was no chance she would be on all five relays. And based on what happened Wednesday night, it sure looks like the 800 free relay will be the one she sits out.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s why: if Stanford can win the relay without her\u2014which sure looks likely after the Wednesday night record\u2014why not save her for the two short free relays and to anchor the medleys, both of which will be much tougher for the Cardinal to win?<\/p>\n

In the end, it\u2019s depth, not superstars, that make for winning free relays, and Stanford has that with Eastin and Drabot being two of the most versatile swimmers in the country. If their contributions allow Stanford to win the 800 free relay at NCAAs without Manuel, the team will be sitting pretty with its key piece rested and ready to anchor each of the other four relays.<\/p>\n

Speaking of event choices\u2026 400 IM or 100 breast for Will Licon?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Will Licon<\/strong> is the two-time defending NCAA champion and American record-holder in the 200 breast, but he\u2019s never competed in the 100-yard distance individually at the NCAA championships. In fact, his Texas school record in the 100 breast headed into Wednesday had been set as a split in the 200 breast at NCAAs.<\/p>\n

And then in a 100 breast time trial<\/a>\u00a0at the Big 12 championships Wednesday morning, Licon posted a 51.15. The time ranks second in the country behind Fabien Schwingenschlogl (51.07) and would have won last year\u2019s NCAA championship.<\/p>\n

So he will swim this event at NCAAs this year, right? Well, not so fast. Licon will undoubtedly enter the 200 IM and 200 breast, but he will have to pick between the 400 IM and 100 breast\u2014both on the third day of the meet\u2014for his third event. Not an easy choice, considering Licon won the 400 IM at the 2015 NCAA championships and finished second last season.<\/p>\n

The decision for Licon and Texas head coach Eddie Reese<\/strong> could come down to this: take a relatively safe top-three finish in the 400 IM with the knowledge that Georgia\u2019s Chase Kalisz<\/strong> is unlikely to be beat, or go for the win in the 100 breast, where a tight finish could knock Licon off the podium altogether.<\/p>\n

Harvard freshman Dean Farris steals the show at Ivy League championships.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In the men\u2019s 800 free relays around the country Wednesday night, you might have noticed that Indiana\u2019s Blake Pieroni<\/strong> led off in 1:31.83<\/a>\u2014his best time and the fastest time in the country this season. Impressive, yes, and Pieroni will undoubtedly be a factor in an intriguing and deep race in the 200 free next month at NCAAs.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s another one worth watching out for: Harvard\u2019s Dean Farris<\/strong>. If you don\u2019t know anything about this freshman from Georgia, I\u2019ll fill you in: his best time in the 200 free is 1:34.01, ranked 12th in the country this season, from a dual meet against Yale earlier this month. Coming into college from the Atlanta area, he had never been faster than 1:36.00.<\/p>\n

Wednesday night, he\u00a0anchored Harvard\u2019s relay in 1:31.29<\/a>. At last year\u2019s NCAA championships, only one person split faster than that: Townley Haas with his ridiculous 1:30.52.<\/p>\n

Earlier in the night, Farris had anchored the Crimson\u2019s 200 medley relay to victory with his 18.89 split. Oh, and this guy was recruited mainly as a backstroker, with best times of 47.xx in the 100 back and 1:42.58 in the 200-yard distance. Let\u2019s just say, if you weren\u2019t paying much attention to the Ivy League meet, you might want to reconsider.<\/p>\n
