MENS 200M IM – FINAL

Ryan Lochte only wound up swimming a single event this weekend after some travel delays didn’t get him home to Charlotte until mid-week, but he made the most of that by winning the men’s 200 IM in 2:00.52.
Even at 30 years old, Lochte is still setting new personal standards in his swimming – that’s the fastest that he’s ever been in the 200 IM in February.

His former Gator Swim Club training partner Conor Dwyer made some ground back on the second 100 meters of this race, out-splitting Lochte on both the breaststroke (seven-tenths) and freestyle (seven-tenths), but Lochte’s lead was too big as Dwyer finished 2nd in 2:01.31.

Cody Miller made a huge move on the breaststroke leg of this swim, splitting 33.88, to accentuate what has been a fantastic breaststroke weekend for him. He placed 3rd in 2:02.72. Former Big Ten foe Kyle Whitaker was 4th in 2:02.98, and British teen Duncan Scott was 5th in 2:04.14.
