ACC Championships, Day 2 Finals: NC State Men Record Another American Record in 200 Free Relay<\/strong><\/p>\n

For the second time in two men’s 200-yard relays in two nights, NC State has recorded the quickest time ever using only U.S. swimmers. The Wolfpack team of Quintin McCarty<\/strong>,\u00a0Drew Salls<\/strong>,\u00a0Noah Henderson<\/strong> and\u00a0Luke Miller<\/strong> teamed up to take down the American mark in the 200 free relay Wednesday evening at the ACC Championships, overcoming early challenges by Notre Dame, Virginia and Virginia Tech to claim a comfortable relay win.<\/p>\n

On the opening leg, Notre Dame’s\u00a0Chris Guiliano<\/strong>, fresh off a sizzling time of 18.57 in the 50 free prelims, led off in 18.63 to take a slim lead on Virginia’s\u00a0Matt Brownstead\u00a0<\/strong>(18.74), Virginia Tech’s\u00a0Youssef Ramadan\u00a0<\/strong>(18.90) and McCarty (18.93). By the halfway point, the teams were all within a quarter-second off each other, but Salls had the quickest split at 18.54.<\/p>\n

But no one could match the Wolfpack’s depth, and Henderson began to pull away with his 18.45 on the third leg, leaving it up to Miller to finish the job, which he did in 18.53. That was sufficient for a final time of 1:14.44, which broke the American record set by Virginia’s Brownstead,\u00a0Matt King<\/strong>,\u00a0Connor Boyle<\/strong> and\u00a0August Lamb<\/strong> at the conference meet two years ago.<\/p>\n

NC State’s men also tied the ACC record, a mark set by Henderson,\u00a0Nyls Korstanje<\/strong>, Miller and\u00a0David Curtiss<\/strong> in a third-place finish at last year’s NCAA Championships.<\/p>\n

Virginia ended up second here with Brownstead, Boyle,\u00a0Simon Lins<\/strong> and Lamb combining for a mark of 1:15.20, with Lamb finishing in 18.52 to move the Cavaliers from fourth to second. The Hokies’ team of\u00a0Ramadan,\u00a0Brendan Whitfield<\/strong>,\u00a0Carles Coll Marti<\/strong> and\u00a0Mario Molla Yanes<\/strong> claimed third in 1:15.47, just ahead of the Fighting Irish (1:15.59) and Florida State (1:15.81).<\/p>\n
