We didn\u2019t go in as the favorite, and being the underdog is great.

They tied for third with Cal last season.<\/p>\n<p>Stokowski put them out front by going 20.36, and Korstanje split 19.15 on fly.

It\u2019s the third straight medal for the Gators, having finished second in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Cal&#8217;s <strong>Bjorn Seeliger<\/strong> had the fastest backstroke time in 20.29. (Stokowski joked that for the second straight year, he was less than a tenth slower than Seeliger, by .08 last year and .07 this year.) Marchand led the breaststrokers, Korstanje the butterfliers, though he was chasing the 18.90 set by Tennessee&#8217;s <strong>Jordan Crooks<\/strong> at the SEC Championships. Liendo&#8217;s 18.03 was the fastest among the anchor legs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s honestly something that\u2019s years in the making,&#8221; Korstanje said of his split. &#8220;I\u2019ve been dreaming of going the fastest time in 50 fly history. Unfortunately there was someone a little bit faster, in my boy Jordan, but still it was faster than last year\u2019s fastest split in history. I\u2019m glad I hit the turn, because that\u2019s very, very important in the fly. I\u2019m glad we executed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>California was fourth. Indiana won the second of three timed heats to finish fifth in 1:51.52. The top six teams were under the pool record. All were also under the American record, dating to Cal in 2018, though all included at least one international swimmer.<\/p>\n<p>That included the international flair on the Wolfpack, which has them off to a dream start.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It feels amazing,&#8221; Stokowski said. &#8220;I told them before the race \u2013 I can tell you guys that \u2013 I believed and I told them that we can do it. And it\u2019s going to take it right now, and right here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<pre><b> Event 1  Men 200 Yard Medley Relay<\/b>\r\n==================================================================================\r\n         NCAA: N 1:21.13  3\/23\/2022 Florida\r\n                          A Chaney, D Hillis, J Friese, W Davis\r\n         Meet: M 1:21.13  3\/23\/2022 Florida\r\n                          A Chaney, D Hillis, J Friese, W Davis\r\n     American: A 1:21.88  3\/23\/2018 California\r\n                          D Carr, C Hoppe, J Lynch, R Hoffer\r\n   U.
