Phillips, McArthur, Taber and Cunningham win individual events
LOS ANGELES - In a closely contested meet, Utah Men's Swimming lost to No. 10 USC this afternoon, 139.05-109.05. Daniel McArthur and Austin Phillips put up strong performances heading into the Pac-12 Championships in a couple weeks.
McArthur won the 100 back in 47.64 and took second in the 200 (1:43.81). He also had the fastest time in the 200 IM (1:46.88), which was unscored. Phillips captured the 100 free with a time of 42.84, the third-fastest time in Utah history, and then took third in the 50 free. Clay Stoddard took second with a time of 19.69
Other winners today included Chris Taber in the 200 fly with a time of 1:46.33 and Jackson Cunningham in the 400 IM (3:54.51). Taber's mark was the fifth-fastest in Utah history. The Utes were also victorious in the 200 free relay, touching the wall in 1:19.36.
Liam O'Haimhirgin was the runner-up in the 100 free and was the top Ute performer in the 200 with a time of 1:39.05. David Fridlander also had a pair of third-place finishes in both the 100 and 200 back. Rahiti De Vos (500 free; 4:24.94) and Tyler Klawiter (1650 free; 15:18.10) finished second in their respective events. Klawiter's time was the sixth-fastest mark in Utah history
Harrison Wayner's mark of 54.68 in the 100 breast moved him into the top 10 all-time at Utah and his time of 1:59.65 in the 200 was the ninth-fastest ever
The Utah men will now prepare for the Pac-12 Championships, Mar. 6-9 at the Weyerhaeuser King County Aquatic Center in Federal Way, Wash.
