The No. 1/4 Texas Longhorns travelled to Tucson, Arizona this weekend to compete against the No. 15/11 Arizona Wildcats for the Arizona Senior Day celebrations. The teams competed on both Friday and Saturday, with Saturday’s competition scored as exhibition. On Friday, however, the Longhorns continued their domination of Division I swimming with a victory on both sides.
Friday’s meet kicked off with a Texas victory in the 200 medley relay. A team of John Shebat, Will Licon, Will Glass, and Brett Ringgold touched with a time of 1:28.49, half a second behind the Arizona team of Chatham Dobbs, Andrew Sovero, Chad Idensohn, and Renny Richmond (1:29.02). Texas freshman Townley Haas then won the 1000 free with a time of 9:18.18. Arizona junior Ty Fowler was second (9:23.42), while his sophomore teammate Nick Hogsed was third (9:26.99). The 200 free was won by Texas freshman Ryan Harty (1:38.28), second went to Arizona’s freshman Parks Jones (1:39.23), and third was grabbed by Longhorn junior PJ Dunne (1:40.66).
The Texas sophomore Ringgold and freshman Shebat nabbed the top two spots in the 100 back with 48.94 and 49.18, respectively. Arizona freshman Dobbs was third (49.95). Sophomore Austin Temple added another win to the Longhorn’s meet with a victory in the 100 breast (56.51). Wildcat senior Sovero was second (56.69), over half a second ahead of Texas junior Hayden Henry (57.36). Harty doubled up with a win in the 200 fly (1:47.94). He was followed by senior teammate John Martens (1:48.60) and Arizona’s sophomore Justin Wright (1:48.83).
