DIVISION I MEN’S SWIMMING AND DIVING CHAMPIONSHIPS RECORDS BOOK 2016 Championship 2 History 9 Championships Records 12 Individual Champions 14 Team Finishes 30 All-Time Team Results 34 2016 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS Texas claims back-to-back national titles: Texas’ Will Licon and Joseph Schooling unleashed NCAA and U.S. Open record swims, and Jack Conger lowered his own American record as the Longhorns’ punctuated their wire-to-wire run to a 12th NCAA team title at the 2016 NCAA Championships. The Longhorns tie Michigan for No. 1 all-time with 12 NCAA titles, and 38th-year Texas head coach Eddie Reese passes former Ohio State coach Mike Peppe as the most decorated coach in the sport’s history with 12 NCAA team titles. Texas won the NCAA Championships with 541.5 points while California took second with 351 points. Florida took third place with 334 points while North Carolina State placed fourth at 314. Georgia rounded out the top-five with 239.5 points. Schooling tied with California’s Ryan Murphy and Florida’s Caeleb Dressel for the Collegiate Swimming Coaches Association of America Swimmer of the Meet honor. Reese also collected his second straight CSCAA National Coach of the Meet Award Licon rewrote the NCAA, American, U.S. Open and NCAA Championship records in the 200 breaststroke and claimed his second consecutive national title in the event at 1:48.12, well under the previous mark of 1:48.66 by Arizona’s Kevin Cordes at the 2014 NCAA Championships. Licon faced off against California’s Josh Prenot for the third time in as many days after splitting the first two races with the Golden Bear. The El Paso, Texas, native led from wire-to-wire on his way to victory. Schooling joined Conger for arguably the most dynamic head-to-head 200 butterfly race ever contested at the NCAA Championships, as both Longhorns became the first swimmers ever to break the 1:39 mark at 200 yards. Conger led for the first 150 yards before Schooling inched his way even with Conger. Schooling out-touched Conger at the wall in 1:37.97, less than a tenth of Conger’s 1:38.06, which lowered his American record by over a second. Schooling, a 2012 London Olympian from Singapore, leaves Atlanta with NCAA and U.S. Open records in the 100 and 200 butterfly events. Texas began its final march to its 12th NCAA team title with the 1,650 freestyle, where top seed Clark Smith and two-time NCAA individual champion Townley Haas competed in the evening finals heat. Haas posted a lifetime best of 14 minutes, 34.36 seconds for fourth place overall, and Smith added five points for the Horns with his 12th-place overall finish in 14:50.00. Freshman Ryan Harty landed his first individual berth in a championship final, as he placed seventh in the 200 backstroke at 1:40.11. Harty clocked a lifetime best of 1:39.17 in the preliminary round and fell one one-hundredth of a second off of Aaron Peirsol’s 13-year-old school mark of 1:39.16. Freshman John Shebat added consecutive lifetime bests in the event. Shebat clocked 1:40.30 in prelims to advance to the consolation final and lowered his personal best to 1:40.10 for third place in the consolation final. Sophomore Brett Ringgold notched a personal best in the 100 freestyle championship final before lowering it later with his 400 freestyle relay leadoff. Ringgold took fifth in the 100 free final in 41.80, and senior John Murray tied for seventh at 42.65. Senior Matt Ellis took third in the consolation final at 42.54. Junior diver Mark Anderson scored on all three boards at the NCAA Championships for a second consecutive year. The Lake Forest, California, native landed a fourth-place finish on platform with 421.55 points. Texas capped the meet by taking a close second in the 400 freestyle relay at 2:46.85, a fraction of a second under the seven-year-old school record from the 2009 Big 12 Championships. 2016 TEAM STANDINGS 25.
