Mizzou hosted Southern Illinois for a men’s and women’s dual meet today in Columbia, beating the Salukis handily in both the men’s and women’s meets.

Jack Dahlgren popped off a season best 1:40.66 on the men’s 200 backstroke, winning the race by six seconds. Dahlgren is now tied with Indiana’s Brendan Burns for ninth in the NCAA this season with that performance. He was within two seconds of his personal best in the event, which sits at 1:38.85 from last year’s NCAA Championships. Dahlgren swam that time in prelims at NCAAs, qualifying him for the ‘A’ final, where he would finish sixth with a 1:40.17.
