SO FAR THIS SEASON:
USC is 2-2 in duals this season. During the October home opener, the Trojans won the men's USC Invitational, defeating Hawaii. Troy claimed three out of four relays (400y medley relay, 200y free relay and 200y medley relay) and claimed multiple individual events at the invite.
In early November, the Trojans beat former Pac-12 rival Arizona in an additional home dual. Against the Wildcats, sophomore All-American Krzysztof Chmielewski blasted an 8:48.78 to win the 1000y freestyle for Troy – the sixth fastest time in the country at that point in the season. He also claimed the 200y butterfly (1:42.37) and 500y freestyle (4:22.86). USC sophomore Sanberk Oktar led a 1-2-3-4 Trojan sweep in the 200y IM, touching first in 1:46.65. Ben Dillard was second in 1:48.31, followed by Chris O'Gradyin third (1:49.05) and Luke Maurer (1:49.16) in fourth.
USC closed out fall competition at the Texas Hall of Fame Invitational, a meet that saw 21 Trojans record personal bests. All-in-all, Troy dropped a combined 78.19 seconds at the invitational. Also at the meet, Stanford graduate transfer Luke Maurer clocked a school record-worthy finish in the 200y IM, touching third in prelims in 1:42.57.
The Trojans resumed competition in early January against longtime Bay Area rivals No. 5 Cal and No. 8 Stanford. USC posted a slew of NCAA provisional cuts during the weekend of stiff competition, but came up short of a team win.
