2022 Big 12 Championships: Carson Foster Swims 3:37 400 IM; Anna Elendt Breaks Conference Record in 100 Breast
The third evening of the Big 12 Championships in Morgantown, W.Va., featured a pair of NCAA Championships runnerup swimmers from last season, with Texas’ Carson Foster competing in his signature event, the 400 IM, and teammate Drew Kibler on the blocks in the 200 free. Foster, in particular, stood out by winning the event by almost three seconds in 3:37.72.
On the women’s side, Texas teammates Anna Elendt and Olivia Bray each took down Big 12 records in the 100 breaststroke and 100 butterfly, respectively.

Women’s 100 Butterfly
Olivia Bray, the Texas sophomore who took seventh in the 100 fly at the NCAA Championships last season, recorded a time of 51.03 in the event to win by almost three seconds. In the process, she clipped her conference record of 51.05 set at last year’s championships, and she improved upon her eighth-ranked time in the nation of 51.07 from December’s Minnesota Invitational.
This event was the first swimming race of the meet where Texas did not finish 1-2-3 as TCU’s Jeanne Dahmen took second in 53.95, just ahead of Kansas’ Autumn Looney (53.98).

Men’s 400 IM
Texas’ Carson Foster is the second-fastest performer in history in the 400 IM at 3:35.27, behind only Chase Kalisz’s American record of 3:33.42, and Foster set himself up for a run at his first individual NCAA title with a dominant performance at the conference level. Foster recorded a performance of 3:37.72, well under his own meet record of 3:40.22 set last season. Foster currently ranks as the second-fastest performer in the nation, with his season best of 3:37.35 from December trailing only Arizona State’s Leon Marchand (3:35.62).
Last season, Foster finished second in the event at the NCAA Championships as Florida’s Bobby Finke ran him down on the last 100 yards. Later, Foster barely missed the Olympic team in the 400-meter IM with a third-place finish at Olympic Trials, but he rebounded to swim the fastest time in the world in the event later in the summer.
Jake Foster, Carson’s older brother, took second in 3:40.42, and Texas’ David Johnston took third in 3:43.61. Both Foster brothers, Johnston and Braden Vines, who was fifth at the conference meet, were all A-finalists in the 400 IM at the NCAA Championships last year, so Texas could have another big scoring run this time around.

Women’s 100 Breaststroke
It has been an impressive sophomore season for Texas’ Anna Elendt, and at the conference meet, she lopped more than a half-second off her lifetime best in winning the event. Elendt touched in 57.35, moving to third in the country behind NC State’s Sophie Hansson and Virginia’s Alexis Wenger, and she broke Breeja Larson’s decade-old Big 12 record of 57.51 (a mark set in the last season before Texas A&M departed the Big 12).
Texas will be welcoming 100-meter breast Olympic gold medalist Lydia Jacoby to the squad next season, and that will set up an incredible 1-2 punch for the Longhorns in the event.
Kansas’ Kate Steward was the only other swimmer to break 1:00 as she finished in 59.62, and third went to Iowa State’s Lehr Thorson in 1:00.87.

Men’s 100 Breaststroke
Texas’ Caspar Corbeau should be in the run for the NCAA title in the 100 breaststroke as he currently ranks third in the nation, just behind Minnesota’s Max McHugh and Alabama’s Derek Maas. Corbeau swam a time of 50.96 to win the conference meet by a second-and-a-half, just off his season-best of 50.79. Corbeau will be aiming to take down Will Licon’s team and conference record of 50.68 that has lasted since 2017.
After Corbeau, TCU went 2-3 in the event with Jadon Wuilliez (52.47) and Janis Silins (52.73).
