Friday night at the 2018 Men’s NCAA Championships in Minneapolis, Minnesota set the stage for one final NCAA 100 fly showdown between Florida’s Caeleb Dressel and Texas’ Joseph Schooling. The race once again went to Dressel. He made history as the first man to break 43, clocking in at 42.80 to dominate the race. The Gators went 1-2 with Jan Switkowski taking 2nd in 44.49. That makes Switkowski the 6th fastest man ever. Indiana’s Vini Lanza moved to #7 all-time with his 44.50 for 3rd. Texas’ Schooling was 4th in 44.88.
Splits:
- 1st 50 Split- 19.99
- 2nd 50 Split- 22.81
- Final Time- 42.80
The former NCAA Record stood at a 43.58 from last season’s NCAA meet, where Dressel upset schooling for the title after Schooling had won the previous 2 years. They’re still the fastest 2 swimmers in history.

if he has even an ok first turn, hes 19.7 to the 50 and a 42.6 or below
So what would he have done in 200IM?
i don’t dare imagine.
How did Schooling do so poorly compared to last year, when he kissed half the 2016-2017 season?
How much if this season did he do?
Lack of motivation?
1. he didnt miss all that time, the was simply an attempt at mind games
2. Caeleb has broken his will at this point
By getting gold, getting rich, and… well, that’s it. NCAA’s is an afterthought.
He’s Missy’d.
Except that Missy was working her butt off the whole time. Don’t think that’s been the case for Schooling since Rio.
