Kruger was 1:55.62. Both are headed to NCAAs, among four such qualifiers. <strong>Ieva Maluka,<\/strong> the 400 IM winner from Georgia, finished third in 1:56.00. <strong>Zoe Carlos-Broc<\/strong> of LSU capped a stellar week by going 1:57.85.<\/p>\n<h4>Men\u2019s 200 individual medley<\/h4>\n<p>Georgia swept the top three places, as it did in the longer IM. This time, it was led by <strong>Cale Martter,<\/strong> who pocketed an NCAA time of 143.75. <strong>Elliot Woodburn<\/strong> was second in 1:44.20, .07 above the standard. <strong>Finn Hammer<\/strong> finished third in 1:44.57.<\/p>\n<p>Fourth place went to <strong>Nil Cadevall<\/strong> of Florida in 1:44.57. Georgia\u2019s <strong>Sascha Macht<\/strong> delivered the night\u2019s fifth-fastest time from the B final.<\/p>\n<h4>Women\u2019s 100 freestyle<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Cadence Vincent<\/strong> of Alabama went stroke for stroke with LSU\u2019s <strong>Michaela de Villiers<\/strong> coming home, getting to the wall first to cap the sprint double. Vincent went 47.97. She had been 47.85 in prelims.<\/p>\n<p>De Villiers pulled to within 48.03. both are good to go to NCAAs, as was <strong>Gabby Van Brunt\u2019s<\/strong> third-place time of 48.25. <strong>Beatriz Bezerra<\/strong> of Florida, LSU\u2019s <strong>Sabrina Lyn<\/strong> and the Alabama duo of <strong>Jada Scott<\/strong> and <strong>Charlotte Rosendale<\/strong> also cracked 49 seconds in the A final, as did <strong>Katie Belle Sikes<\/strong> of Georgia and <strong>Avery Littlefield<\/strong> of LSU in the B final.<\/p>\n<h4>Men\u2019s 100 freestyle<\/h4>\n<p>It wasn\u2019t 39.99. But <strong>Josh Liendo\u2019s<\/strong> 41.11 might install him as the favorite in the 100 free this year. His company in that category, as it has his entire career, will come from within the SEC. Instead of <strong>Jordan Crooks,<\/strong> this time it\u2019s LSU sprinter <strong>Jere Hribar,<\/strong> who was second in 41.15.<\/p>\n<p>Three swimmers found their way under the NCAA standard. <strong>Gustav Olsson<\/strong> of Florida State was the best of them in 42.43. Florida\u2019s <strong>Devin Dilger<\/strong> was fourth in 42.45. Fifth was <strong>Stephan Goncharov<\/strong> of LSU in 42.50, though he\u2019d been 42.32 in the morning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Max Wilson<\/strong> of Florida State won the B final in 42.07. That\u2019s an NCAA time, as is <strong>Alex Painter\u2019s<\/strong> 42.46.<\/p>\n<h4>Women\u2019s 200 butterfly<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Sofia Sartori<\/strong> continued a really solid effort all week for LSU with a winning time of 1:53.29. She was 1.5 seconds up on teammate <strong>Giulia Zambelli <\/strong>and improved her program record in the process<strong>. Addison Reese<\/strong> bested Florida teammate <strong>Michaela Mattes<\/strong> by .22 in 1:56.28. Those two and fifth-place <strong>Izzy Beu<\/strong> of Georgia hit the NCAA time.<\/p>\n<h4>Men\u2019s 200 butterfly<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Luca Urlando<\/strong> stroked away from the field Friday, the only question if he was going to beat his own past. He did, by .02 seconds, lowering his NCAA, American and U.S. Open records to 1:36.41. The best time entering the weekend in the NCAA this year belonged to <strong>Ilya Kharun<\/strong> in 1:37.94.<\/p>\n<p>Second was <strong>Logan Robinson<\/strong> of Florida State in 1:40.40, .06 up on <strong>Drew Hitchcock<\/strong> of Georgia.<strong> Roman<\/strong> <strong>Valdez<\/strong> secured a third Bulldog at NCAAs by going 1:43.21 for fourth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Women\u2019s 200 backstroke<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Florida finished 1-2 in the 200 back, with <strong>Catie Choate\u00a0<\/strong>jumping in front of the field early and holding on to win by eight tenths. Choate finished in 1:51.52, with teammate\u00a0<strong>Jo Jo Ramey<\/strong> placing second in 1:52.35. Alabama&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Emily Jones<\/strong> was third in 1:53.51, with LSU&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Nichole Santuliana<\/strong> (1:54.55) and Georgia Tech&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Phoebe Wright<\/strong> (1:54.77) also beating the NCAA qualifying time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Men\u2019s 200 backstroke<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Florida&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Jonny Marshall<\/strong> is the second-fastest performer ever in the 100 back, and he showed off that speed through the early stages of this 200-yard final. Marshall led by nine tenths at the halfway point, but Alabama&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Tommy Hagar<\/strong> was too good on the back half. Hagar, in sixth place at the halfway point, jumped through the field on the third 50 and then ran down Marshall down the stretch. Hagar finished one hundredth ahead, 1:39.03 to 1:39.04.<\/p>\n<p>Hagar&#8217;s time downed the Bama program record of 1:39.23 set in 2017 by <strong>Connor Oslin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Georgia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Hayden Meyers<\/strong> also went under 1:40 (1:39.45), and the entire A-final field beat the NCAA qualifying time.\u00a0Florida&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Aiden Norman<\/strong> (1:40.21) and Georgia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Sam Powe<\/strong> (1:40.31) both went 1:40s.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Women\u2019s 400 freestyle relay<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alabama had no peer in the women&#8217;s 400 free relay.\u00a0<strong>Gaby Van Brunt<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Cadence Vincent<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Jada Scott <\/strong>and <strong>Emily Jones<\/strong> swam a time of 3:10.62, with Van Brunt, Vincent and Jones all splitting 47s. LSU&#8217;s team finished second in 3:14.46, just ahead of Georgia&#8217;s 3:14.93.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Men\u2019s 400 freestyle relay<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Liendo<\/strong> capped off the meet with a sizzling anchor split for the Florida Gators, propelling his team to a come-from-behind win over Georgia and LSU. Through three legs of the 400 free relay, Florida was more than two seconds behind the Tigers and eight tenths behind the Bulldogs before Liendo went 40.02, more than a second quicker than his time from the individual event earlier in the session.<\/p>\n<p>Florida&#8217;s team, which also included\u00a0<strong>Devin Dilger<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Alex Painter<\/strong> and\u00a0<strong>Scotty Buff<\/strong>, finished in 2:47.04. Georgia got second in 2:47.63, with\u00a0<strong>Luca Urlando<\/strong> coming back after his 200 fly American record to go 41.07. LSU had\u00a0<strong>Jere Hribar<\/strong> splitting 40.66 on the second leg, and his team held on for third in 2:47.73, a school record.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Georgia Invitational: Luca Urlando Lowers American, NCAA Record in 200 Fly Luca Urlando isn\u2019t shy about setting best times when you don\u2019t always expect them.
