Connor Jaeger and Conor Dwyer went head-to-head, creating the best in-season race I’ve seen in a long time from US distance swimmers. Connor Jaeger won the race, posting the ninth ninth fastest time in the world this year at 3:46.30. That swim was the most confident looking swim I have ever seen from Jaeger in-season.
Dwyer had a strong swim as well, posting a second place time of 3:47.53. Marwan El Kamash had the next fastest time for third at 3:50.34.
Akaram Mahmoud was just behind El Kamash in fourth at 3:50.61. There was a small gap before Dion Dressens reached in for fifth with his time of 3:52.39.
Michael Klueh was sixth at 3:54.76, while Michael Weiss and Jonathan Roberts finished seventh and eighth at 3:56 and 4:00, respectively.
Zane Grothe won the B final with his time of 3:53.48
