That\u2019s tied with the top time in the nation entering the meet, <strong>Brayden Morford\u2019s<\/strong> 46.44. Morford went 46.7 in prelims, the third seed behind Costello and <strong>David Bajwa<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The men\u2019s side sees a chance at renewal, with none of the three individual event champions from 2024 back. Emory\u2019s <strong>Crow Thorsen,<\/strong> the men\u2019s 400 IM champ in 2024, is out of this NCAAs after a health scare over the winter (<a href=\"https:\/\/d3so.substack.com\/p\/a-joy-so-real\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">you can read more about that here<\/a>). <strong>Jesse Ssengonzi,<\/strong> the 100 fly record holder, graduated from Chicago, having led a final where the top five finishers were either seniors or fifth-years. Two-time 200 free champ and NCAA record holder <strong>James McChesney<\/strong> of TCNJ has also graduated.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/meetresults.greensboroaquaticcenter.com\/2025NCAA\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Live Results<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncaa.com\/liveschedule\/2025\/03\/19\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Live Stream Information<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/meet\/ncaa-division-iii-coverage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NCAA Division III Coverage<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/ncaa-division-iii-championships-kaley-mcintyre-sets-ncaa-record-in-50-free-three-peat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Division III Championships Night 1 Recap<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>That leaves a chance for new blood, or those looking for revenge, like the sophomore Costello. After swimmers perhaps shying away from the 100 fly last year, they\u2019re back in numbers this year. <strong>Justin Finkel,<\/strong> who won the 500 free on Wednesday night, is fourth seed. He was fourth in the 200 free last year. Morford won the 200 IM Wednesday. Only Johns Hopkins\u2019 <strong>Avery Clapp<\/strong> is a holdover from the A final last year.<\/p>\n<p>Coast Guard Academy\u2019s <strong>Sean Lyman<\/strong> set the pace in the 400 IM in 3:50.29. He had been quickest in the 500 free before slipping to fifth in finals. He was fourth in the IM last year. <strong>Ryan Higgins<\/strong>, last year\u2019s silver medalist, is the third seed, behind <strong>Kirill Sidorko.<\/strong> Last year\u2019s bronze medalist <strong>Ethan Manske<\/strong> got into the final in sixth.<\/p>\n<p>Four of the top six in the 200 free are back from last year, even absent McChesney and Finkel. <strong>Colin Twiss<\/strong> set the pace in 1:36.36, with the top seed entering the meet, <strong>Nathaniel Taft<\/strong> of Hamilton, second in 1:36.60. Twiss was third last year, Taft second. <strong>Oliver Schalet<\/strong> of Williams (fifth last year) and sixth-place <strong>Dalton Jobe<\/strong> of Washington and Lee are also in the A final.<\/p>\n<p>On the women\u2019s side, 200 IM champ <strong>Sophia Verkleeren<\/strong> is chasing the 400 IM this year, after doing backstroke last year. She went 4:15.75 to take the top seed, .08 off the winning time of last year from Trinity\u2019s <strong>Neely Burns,<\/strong> who was fifth in prelims. Second is Bowdoin freshman <strong>Nathalie Garre,<\/strong> who won the 500 free.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sydney Smith<\/strong> grabbed the top seed in the 100 fly in 53.74, three tenths up on NYU\u2019s <strong>Nicole Ranile,<\/strong> who is opting for this event after A finaling in the 200 free last year. <strong>Alex Turvey,<\/strong> the reigning silver medalist from MIT, is fourth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kaley McIntyre<\/strong> is chasing her second three-peat, with the top time of 1:46.54 in the 200 free. She had been 1:46.15 in season and won it in 1:46.05 last year. She was nearly three second quicker than <strong>Penelope Helm<\/strong> of Emory, who finished third last year. <strong>Ella Roberson<\/strong> and <strong>Molly Haag<\/strong> are the only other swimmers to break 1:50.<\/p>\n<p>The relays proceeded without DQs in prelims. MIT, winner of the 400 medley, was the top seed in the women\u2019s 200 free relay, their time of 1:31.23 faster than the winning time last year of Pomona Pitzer, which was third in prelims. Kenyon took top honors in the men\u2019s 200 free relay in 1:19.74 in looking to defend its title. The night session will also include women\u2019s 1-meter diving.<\/p>\n<h4>NCAA Division III Scores<\/h4>\n<pre>Men - Team Rankings - Through Event 9                       \r\n  1.
