INDIANA MEN WIN 4TH STRAIGHT BIG 10 TITLE WITH LARGEST MARGIN OF VICTORY IN CONFERENCE HISTORY
Indiana’s breaststroke group was one of the team’s strongest disciplines, showcasing exactly why they earned the “Breaststroke U” nickname. Led by Brooks, the Hoosiers went 1-2-3-4-5 in the 100 breaststroke as the senior was followed by Benzing, Josh Matheny, Caspar Corbeau, and Jassen Yep. The team backed up that incredible depth in the 200 breast, as Matheny, Yep, Toby Barnett, and Corbeau placed 1-2-3-4 in that event.
Indiana not only flexed its depth on this season’s roster at this meet, but it also showed its consistency across program history. This was most on display during the 400 medley relay, as the team of McDonald, Brooks, Tomer Frankel, and King earned the team’s 10th straight conference victory in the event.
