WHEN the University of Michigan swam a 6:09.85 in the 800 freestyle relay last Wednesday at the Big 10 swimming and diving championships, it set the table for a dominating performance by the Wolverines at the conference meet. And while we highlight the Wolverines on today&#8217;s show, we&#8217;re also putting a spotlight on one of the key players that helped them break the NCAA and U.S. Open record.<\/p>\n<p>Swimming the second leg, Michael Wynalda blazed through his 200 yards of freestyle in 1 minute and 30.60 seconds. To our knowledge, that&#8217;s the fastest split ever done in the relay, and the first person to every swim that distance under the 1:31 barrier. Of course, that swim itself didn&#8217;t break records because it wasn&#8217;t a leadoff, but it set the tone for Michigan&#8217;s chase of that relay record and put Wynalda squarely in the conversation of people to watch in the individual 200 freestyle at next month&#8217;s NCAA championships.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Wynalda will have some very stiff competition in that 200 freestyle in Austin next month, including reigning NCAA champion Joao de Lucca, who is the third-fastest performer in history. We could see two swimmers under Simon Burnett&#8217;s hallowed 1:31.20 NCAA and U.S. Open record, and that would be a swim for the ages.<\/p>\n<p>So congratulations, Michael on your 1:30.60 relay split. It&#8217;s earned you the Speedo Performance of the Week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PHOENIX, Arizona, March 4.
