ASU’s Grant House isn’t done improving in the 200 free. After swimming a huge new personal best of 1:30.54 in the 200 free leading off the 800 free relay on Wednesday night, House undercut that time tonight, winning the Pac-12 title in 1:30.23.
The swim marks yet another ASU program record and a Pac-12 meet record. He was again just off Cal alum Andrew Seliskar‘s Pac-12 conference record of 1:30.14, which he swam at the 2019 NCAA Championships. With the swim, House now moves up to #6 all-time in the SCY 200 freestyle. Here is the newly-updated list of all-time top 10 performers:
| Rank | Swimmer | Time | Meet |
| 1 | Dean Farris | 1:29.15 | 2019 NCAAs |
| 2 | Kieran Smith | 1:29.48 | 2021 SEC Champs |
| 3 | Townley Haas | 1:29.50 | 2018 NCAAs |
| 4 | Blake Pieroni | 1:29.63 | 2018 NCAAs |
| 5 | Andrew Seliskar | 1:30.14 | 2019 NCAAs |
| 6 | Grant House | 1:30.23 | 2022 Men’s Pac-12 Champs |
| 7 | Zach Apple | 1:30.34 | 2019 NCAAs |
| 8 | Drew Kibler | 1:30.39 | 2021 NCAAs |
| 9 | Shaine Casas | 1:30.59 | 2021 NCAAs |
| 10 | Dylan Carter | 1:30.95 | 2017 NCAAs |
Additionally, House is now the fastest performer in the NCAA this season, edging out Florida’s Kieran Smith, who has been 1:30.42 this season. House and Smith are the only swimmers in the NCAA this season who have been under 1:31.
Here is the split comparison between House’s swim on Wednesday night, and his race tonight:
| Split | 800 Free Relay Lead-off – 2022 Pac-12
(Previous Personal Best) |
2022 Pac-12 200 Free Final
(New Personal Best) |
| 1st 50 | 20.98 | 20.89 |
| 2nd 50 | 22.80 | 22.75 |
| 3rd 50 | 23.25 | 23.08 |
| 4th 50 | 23.51 | 23.51 |
| Final Time | 1:30.54 | 1:30.23 |
Compared to his previous best from Wednesday night, House was just a tick faster on each of the first 3 50s of the race, and matched his split exactly on the final 50.
How great it is for Grant that he has the opportunity to climb up this list as an NCAA student-athlete, while simultaneously working toward ending the NCAA and college swimming as we know it. The sport of swimming should not celebrate this boy.
thanks for being uber specific with this one
Record in the pool and record for the biggest ego interview. All that talk for the team to get 3rd out of 6 teams in the Pac 12. Classic ASU
asu is having the meet of their lives and posting several of the top times in the NCAA. stay salty
Why so bitter?
House a great kid. Loves his school
Has worked hard to get super fast.
How about enjoying fast swimming?
Did Doconc just comment about an anonymous internet commenter being bitter?
Woof. Talk about lack of self awareness.

House is in the house
