Texas A&M junior Shaine Casas continued to roll Saturday morning in Austin, dropping a 1:36.54 in the 200 back that moves him to #4 all-time. That’s his first time under 1:37, with his previous best being a 1:37.20. That time had him ranked #6 all time, but his swim today jumped him ahead of Ryan Lochte, who held the record in this event until Ryan Murphy broke in 2015.

Of the three men ahead of him, only Austin Katz is still competing in the NCAA. Katz, a Longhorn, appeared to be entered in the 100 fly and 200 fly this weekend, but hasn’t swam either event.
We could potentially be seeing 3 NCAA records this year,100 bk,200 bk, and even 2 IM
How long are this dudes arms? looks like he’s grabbing water from the bottoms of the pool. I’m very excited for this kids future
Where is Austin Katz? Didn’t want to race this weekend?
I’m guessing he didn’t rest like some of his teammates and he & the coaches didn’t want to give Shaine a mental edge over him before NCAAs, but I could be totally off.
If he is thinking like that, Casas already has the advantage mentally
