MOST of the projections based on the early psych sheet had Michigan and Florida going toe-to-toe for the 2014 NCAA Division I Men&#8217;s Championships. All of those were completely wrong as California and Texas had been close heading into the final session before the Golden Bears put on a clinic on how to win a championship during the final session.<\/p>\n<p>By the end of the night, California didn&#8217;t even have to swim the 400 free relay to win, but it did and still took second. The victory delivered California its fifth NCAA title in program history, while head coach Dave Durden has now won a trio of title at the helm of the Golden Bears.<\/p>\n<p>It didn&#8217;t hurt that the Golden Bears won three relay titles and earned a backstroke sweep from super freshman Ryan Murphy, but the momentum definitely shifted when Jeremy Bagshaw cut 17 seconds from his lifetime best in the 1650 free to finish second out of the slower heats to start finals, and the Golden Bears never let up.<\/p>\n<p>Texas, meanwhile, took second to California, 468.5 to 417.5, ending the chance of Eddie Reese tying Mike Peppe for the most career coaching men&#8217;s titles at 11. Reese, however, still remains just one of four coaches to hit double digits in wins at Richard Quick (13) and David Marsh (12) own the overall record from wins in both the men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s meets.<\/p>\n<p>Texas had been vying to become the first team to ever win an NCAA title without winning a swimming event following a pair of diving titles from Michael Hixon in the one meter and three meter events. But, those dreams were shattered after a monster night from Durden&#8217;s Golden Bears this evening.<\/p>\n<p>Although Florida&#8217;s Marcin Cieslak had a tremendous meet with a pair of victories in the 200 IM and 100 fly, when he missed the win in the 200 fly on the final night, Arizona&#8217;s Kevin Cordes could not be denied as Swimmer of the Meet. Cordes put on a display in the breaststroke events that this sport has never seen. He broke the 100 breast American record twice on day two, nearly breaking the 50-second barrier with his winning 50.04. He then clipped the 200 breast American record during finals on day three.<\/p>\n<p>Although there were plenty of fast performances and amazing efforts during the three days of action here in Austin, what will go down as the top storyline is the fact that 18 relays were disqualified in just three days of swimming. This included six in the 400 medley relay.<\/p>\n<p>The punchline of the meet proved to be how many times announcer Sam Kendricks had to say \u201cResults are unofficial,\u201d which basically means that someone likely DQed in the previous event. Conspiracy theories ran rampant, with some calling into question the relay takeoff pads accuracy in the first place.<\/p>\n<p><b>CSCAA Awards<\/b><br \/>\nSwimmer of the Year<br \/>\nKevin Cordes, Arizona<\/p>\n<p>Swimming Coach of the Year<br \/>\nDave Durden, California<\/p>\n<p>Diver of the Year<br \/>\nMichael Hixon, Texas<\/p>\n<p>Diving Coach of the Year<br \/>\nMatt Scoggin, Texas<\/p>\n<p><b>Event Winners<\/b><br \/>\nAlabama<br \/>\nKristian Gkolomeev (50 free tie)<\/p>\n<p>Auburn<br \/>\n400 free relay<\/p>\n<p>Arizona<br \/>\nKevin Cordes (100 breast AR, 200 breast AR)<br \/>\nBrad Tandy (50 free tie)<\/p>\n<p>California<br \/>\nRyan Murphy (100 back, 200 back)<br \/>\n200 free relay<br \/>\n200 medley relay (American record)<br \/>\n400 medley relay<\/p>\n<p>Duke<br \/>\nNick McCrory (10M diving)<\/p>\n<p>Florida<br \/>\nMarcin Cieslak (200 IM, 100 fly)<\/p>\n<p>Georgia<br \/>\nChase Kalisz (400 IM)<\/p>\n<p>Louisville<br \/>\nJoao De Lucca (200 free, 100 free)<\/p>\n<p>Michigan<br \/>\nDylan Bosch (200 fly)<br \/>\nConnor Jaeger (1650 free)<\/p>\n<p>Southern California<br \/>\nCristian Quintero (500 free)<br \/>\n800 free relay<\/p>\n<p>Texas<br \/>\nMichael Hixon (1M diving, 3M diving)<\/p>\n<p><b>Team Standings<\/b><br \/>\n1.
