A year ago, Louisville entered the ACC Men\u2019s Championships as the top seed in the 200 medley relay, then promptly opened the meet with a DQ.<\/p>\n
Wednesday, they rectified that disappointment, with a close call. Despite being the second seed, a second slower than Georgia Tech, the Cardinals surged to a win in 1:22.71. It buzzed within four tenths of the meet record set in 2019 by NC State and led seven (!) NCAA A cuts in the race.<\/p>\n
Louisville got the win, the team of Mitchell Whyte, Evgenii Somov, Dalton Lowe and Abdelrahman Sameh<\/strong> leading wire-to-wire. They navigated a close call with Lowe, the freshman\u2019s reaction time at -0.01. Sameh brought home an 19.76 leg on the end.<\/p>\n Second was top-seeded Georgia Tech, which crept within a quarter second thanks to Christian Ferraro\u2019s<\/strong> 20.07 leg on fly. Third was Virginia, freshman Matthew Brownstead<\/strong> bringing them home in 18.45 to charge from sixth to third.<\/p>\n Also worth recognition was Pittsburgh\u2019s Blaise Vera,<\/strong> who split 19.68 on his butterfly leg, helping the Panthers nab an A cut in seventh.<\/p>\n NC State rode a strong back half of the race to claim the 800 free relay, defending its top seed in 6:12.68. The squad of Lukas Miller, Eric Knowles, Erge Gezmis <\/strong>and Hunter Tapp<\/strong> earned an A cut in the race. Knowles actually provided the fastest split at 1:32.27.<\/p>\n The fastest leg of the race came from Philip Manoff<\/strong> of Virginia Tech, who staked the Hokies to a lead with a 1:32.33 out front. The foursome of him, Antani Ivanov, Carles Coll Marti <\/strong>and Samuel Tornqvist<\/strong> were second in 6:14.04. Louisville, which dominated the second heat of three thanks to Nicolas Albiero\u2019s<\/strong> lead-off of 1:32.31, grabbed the other A cut in 6:16.61.<\/p>\n Team scores include the 3-meter diving event last week<\/em><\/p>\n A year ago, Louisville entered the ACC Men\u2019s Championships as the top seed in the 200 medley relay, then promptly opened the meet with a DQ.
