TYR Pro Championships: Jake Foster, Dakota Luther Record World Top-10 Times in Irvine<\/strong><\/p>\n

On the final evening of racing at the TYR Pro Championships in Irvine, Calif., two swimmers recorded times that would have been quick enough to qualify for the U.S. World Championships team. In the men’s 200 breaststroke,\u00a0Jake Foster<\/strong> of the University of Texas and Mason Manta Rays swam a time of 2:08.23 while another Longhorn,\u00a0Dakota Luther<\/strong>, went 2:06.79 in the women’s 200 butterfly.<\/p>\n

Foster, whose younger brother Carson<\/strong> Foster<\/strong> is currently racing after the World Championships<\/a>. moved to ninth in the world in his signature event, just clear of the 2:08.32 that Josh Matheny <\/strong>swam to finish second at U.S. Nationals. Foster’s time would have ranked him fifth overall in the World Championships final. Also swimming under 2:10 in Irvine was Foster’s Texas training partner Will Licon<\/strong>, who went 2:09.51, with Indiana’s\u00a0Max Reich<\/strong> taking third in 2:11.35.<\/p>\n
