There were a lot of big swims on the men’s side last week during NCAA D1 dual meets.
For starters, both NC State’s Ryan Held and Cal’s Michael Jensen broke 43 in the 100 free wearing briefs. Jensen went 43.0 and 42.9 against Arizona last weekend. Jensen’s 19.47 in the 50 free was also the fastest time of the weekend.
On the topic of freestyle, two Florida Gators dropped big times in the 200 free over the weekend against Auburn. Jan Switkowski and Khader Baqlah went 1-2 in the 200 free, going 1:33.95 and 1:34.60, respectively. Against Rider and Bryant, Harvard’s Dean Farris put up the weekend’s third-quickest time, a 1:35.11.
The Pac-12 rolled this weekend, as Grant Shoults dropped the only sub-4:20 swim of the weekend in the 500 free. Shoults posted a 4:19.61 as the Cardinal overpowered ASU on Saturday.
The Cal men looked very good last week. In addition to Jensen’s swims, Andrew Seliskar went the fastest times in both IMs, Matthew Josa went the #1 time in the 100 fly, and Mike Thomas ruled the 200 fly.

I believe Joe schooling went 1:44.4 in 2 fly.
Oh nvm that was probably right after you posted this.
Texas is the Undertaker undefeated at the biggest event though not for quite as long, but Cal is the next big thing the beast incarnate my client Brrrock Lesnaar!
Cal won the 2011, 2012, and 2014 NCAA Championships. So not sure they’re the ‘next big thing’ so much as the ‘existing big thing.’
Crazy state: Since (and including) 2010, there have been 8 NCAA Division I men’s Championship meets. 15 out of the 16 spots for 1st and 2nd place have come from Cal and Texas combined.
That one Michigan year ha.
I know these are fast times and I also know I’m beating a dead horse but I so, so wish the US of A would swim short course meters.
If you build a time machine you can travel back to 2004
This is a great metric to see where Texas is at this afternoon!
