Ryan Murphy took down Nick Thoman‘s 100y back American record, and the two will likely meet in the 100 back final in Omaha.

SEC on top! Also, Texas coming in fourth for the Big 12 seeing as UT was the only Big 12 school to score points…

Some of the fastest swimming of NCAAs actually happens on Sunday during long course time trials. 1:57 is movin’!

When you look at the results from NCAAs after each night.. @swimswamnews @SwimmingWorld pic.twitter.com/NaVqP7CWnW

This year’s NCAAs was ridiculously fast. Is it because of the Olympic year? Who knows, but boy is this summer going to be fun.
So if Texas swam the best swimmers from the Big Ten, they would win! That is pretty incredible for Texas and sad for the Big Ten. Big Ten and Pac Ten (save Cal) really need to step it up.
I’d like to see how many swimming scholarships by conference for comparison.
