Chase Kalisz finished nearly three seconds ahead of the field to win the 200 fly. He used a strong finish to cruise into the wall at 1:56.90.
That time was three seconds faster than his prelims time and a solid time heading into nationals in a couple of weeks.
Louisville’s Zach Harting finished second in 1:59.40, followed by Louisville’s Nicholas Albiero (1:59.96).
Zane Grothe, making an appearance in a non-distance event, finished eighth in 2:02.54.
