It is great that some young guys are coming up,\u201d Farris said. \u201cHopefully we can give the old guys a run for their money.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>USC junior <strong>Dylan Carter<\/strong> has the second seed at 1:32.17, followed by Indiana junior <strong>Blake Pieroni<\/strong> (1:32.42) and NC State senior <strong>Soeren Dahl<\/strong> (1:32.55). Wisconsin senior <strong>Brett Pinfold<\/strong> took the eighth seed (1:33.21).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was a little nervous going into it,\u201d Farris said. \u201cI was next to Dylan Carter and I just tried to go out with him. The last 50 hurt a little bit, but overall, I am happy with it. I am excited I got into the finals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The first NCAA meet for the freshman class is always a little eye-opening.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am not really used to swimming all these big guys. Trials is the only time I have raced those guys. It is definitely different, going in with no expectations and just wanting to race,\u201d Farris said.<\/p>\n<p>The Harvard freshman is looking to have an impact beyond fast individual racing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we have a really solid team and I think the Ivy League can be one of the top leagues in the country, hopefully in my four years,\u201d he said. \u201cI kind of wanted to make a statement that you can go to one of the best schools in the world and still swim fast. There is a stigma that you have to choose one or the other, and I think it is better to have balance. Hopefully I am an inspiration to kids who will look at the Ivy League rather than just powerhouse swimming schools.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It starts with the 200 freestyle final, which has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/sub-130-200-free-history-in-the-making\/\">several swimmers capable<\/a> of going 1:30. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/why-eddie-reese-doubts-a-sub-130-200-free-at-2017-ncaas\/\">But will they?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Michigan freshman Felix Auboek took the 13<sup>th<\/sup> seed at 1:33.45 after an All-American finish in the 500 freestyle, giving the field a fourth freshman.<\/p>\n<p>The influx of freshman will help ensure this event will be an elite race top-to-bottom for years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis morning was a big confidence booster,\u201d Rooney said. \u201cI know Dean and Cameron and they have been doing some pretty outstanding things this year. It is going to be very cool to compete \u2014 and the rest of the field is packed \u2014\u00a0guys that went 1:30. It is going to take a special swim to win.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Dan D\u2019Addona.
