We just witnessed the greatest dual meet in NCAA Swimming History.
The top two men’s teams in the country just fought it out, in the pouring rain, it came down to the LAST RELAY, and the meet ended in a tie.
ASU - 150

Got to coach in the best dual meet in men’s collegiate swimming history today. Amazing performances by @calmenswim and @ASUSwimDive !! Great crowd, torrential rain, every swim meant something, awesome energy!!
Outstanding performances over in Canada with a host of British junior athletes taking to the podium! 🙌
The standout result so far coming as the Mixed 4x50m Free Relay team claimed 🥇 and went inside the world junior record.

“It’s all about reinventing yourself.”
As @Braden_Keith points out, new world champion @M4ttRichards made the decision to change things up after a challenging post Olympic year & swap Bath for Millfield. It paid off with gold.
