Eric Shanteau increased his lead in the men’s 200 Breast final with each turn, leading to a 2:10.84 finish and a new pool record for the McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion. Top seed Elliott Keefer touched second in 2:13.90, with Henrique Barbosa claimed 3rd in 2:16.92.

The bonus for this final is that at least there wasn’t a shaky start leading the swimmers to question whether or not a false start had been issued.
