Johns Hopkins’ Andrew Greenhalgh defended his NCAA D3 title with a time of 4:21.83. That swim was well off his 2015 NCAA D3 record of 4:20.60, but nearly a second enough to pick up the title this time around.
Kenyon’s Arthur Conover took second-place honors in a time of 4:22.69 with Emory’s Christian Baker (4:23.46) and Thomas Gordon (4:26.92) picking up big points for their squad with third and fourth overall.
MIT’s Joshua Graves (4:27.76), NYU’s Austin Palmer (4:27.89), Denison’s Stuart Hohm (4:28.86) and Johns Hopkins’ Griffith Otazu (4:29.68) rounded out the A final.
