Berens tabbed National Men's College Swimmer of the Week
CollegeSwimming.com has selected Texas senior Ricky Berens as its NCAA Division I Men's Swimmer of the Week after the Olympic gold medalist and world champion won two individual events and helped UT to four relay wins in its victory last weekend at the Southwest Collegiate Plunge in Dallas.
A 16-time All-American, Berens (Charlotte, N.C.) claimed the 100-yard backstroke in 48.71 seconds, good for a NCAA provisional-qualifying mark. He added another individual win in the 100 butterfly in 48.35.
Berens split 48.21 on the butterfly leg in helping Texas to victory in the 400 medley relay in 3:20.04. Berens anchored UT's 200 free relay to victory in 20.20 and split 21.89 on the butterfly leg in UT's first-place 200 medley relay. He split 45.59 on the second leg of UT's 400 freestyle relay that was victorious in 3:03.07.
Berens and the Longhorns host their home opener on Friday, Oct. 30 when they take on Indiana at UT's Lee and Joe Jamail Texas Swimming Center. The meet gets underway at 3 p.m. Central.
Men's Swimming and Diving claims Southwest Collegiate Plunge
Texas captured seven of eight events to finish off its victory Saturday at the Southwest Collegiate Plunge, a four-team championship-style meet featuring Texas A&M, Missouri and SMU. The Longhorns claimed the event with 872 points after leading with 459 points after Friday's opening session.
Texas opened day two with a win in the 200-yard medley relay, as freshman Cole Cragin, junior Scott Spann, senior Ricky Berens and sophomore Jimmy Feigen finished in 1 minute, 30.81 seconds. Cragin led off in 22.98 on the backstroke leg before Spann split 25.55 on the breaststroke. Berens picked up the butterfly in 21.89 before Feigen anchored in 20.39.

The Best Press Conference Ever
Sorry for the delay with news and gallery updates! I'm working on adding everything now!
FINA World Championships, Swimming: Flash! United States Clips World Record in Men's 800 Free Relay
It came down to the touch, but the United States was able to beat the men's 800 free relay world record by the slimmest of margins at the FINA World Championships.
The team of Michael Phelps (1:44.49), Ricky Berens (1:44.13), David Walters (1:45.47) and Ryan Lochte (1:44.46) clocked a time of 6:58.55 to win the world title, and claim the world record.
Nearly the same team set the global mark at 6:58.56 at the 2008 Beijing Olympics as Phelps (1:43.31), Lochte (1:44.28), Berens (1:46.29) and Peter Vanderkaay (1:44.68) topped the event last summer.
FINA World Championships, Swimming: United States, Japan Tie for Top Seed in Men's 800 Free Relay
It came down to the wire, and not even 800 meters could decide the top seed in the men's 800 free relay at the FINA World Championships.
The U.S. and Japan tied with matching 7:03.30s in the final heat of prelims in the relay, as the two teams nearly beat the meet record of 7:03.24 set by the U.S. in 2007.
Ricky Berens (1:44.95), Dan Madwed (1:45.63), Davis Tarwater (1:47.94) and Peter Vanderkaay (1:44.78) made up the U.S. time, while Shogo Hihara (1:46.75), Yoshihiro Okumura (1:44.73), Shunsuke Kuzuhara (1:46.41) and Takeshi Matsuda (1:45.41) comprised the Japanese relay.

Records fall, but U.S. 400 relay doesn't at world championships
The closest-contested men's final of Day 1 did not even feature a world record in the 400 freestyle relay. Even swimmers from other countries were all but handing the win to the vaunted French foursome because the U.S. team was without Olympic hero Jason Lezak, who is competing in Israel.
"We pretty much had a new relay," Phelps said of his teammates Ryan Lochte, Matt Grevers and anchor Nathan Adrian. "When we come into a meet we have a goal to win all three relays. This is a perfect way to end Day 1."
That U.S. foursome almost didn't get the chance to swim in the final. In the morning prelims, Ricky Berens' suit, by the Italian company Jaked, split in the back when he leaned over to stretch after getting on the blocks.
"I kind of freaked out for a second," Berens said.
Showing some skin took on new meaning here. Of course, Berens is hoping he won't become a YouTube cult hero after completing the exposed swim.
"It felt like there was a bunch of extra weight around like a bag of water," he said. ". . . I was trying hard not to focus on the suit. I've never ripped a suit before."
Said Lochte: "I would have been, like, 'Whatever.' I would have swam naked if I had to. I mean, you're at the world championships, you can't really hold anything back."
In an Olympic Flashback, U.S. Team Rallies to Win Gold
[...] a U.S. team that had never swum together stepped up after a suit malfunction Sunday morning nearly prevented the Americans from even qualifying in the event's heats. And they persevered after an extremely average day from the team's resident living legend.
"Tonight, we pretty much had a whole new relay," said Phelps, who has won 14 gold medals in the last two Olympic Games. "I think tonight we came together well as a team. We swam great as Team USA. They put together three solid splits. I was a little disappointed; I wanted to swim a little faster."
Phelps's leadoff leg of 47.78 seconds put him 0.69 behind Cielo and 0.05 behind France's Fabien Gilot. Though it looked bad, things could have been worse. Moments before the event's qualifying heats Sunday morning, Ricky Berens, scheduled to swim third on the U.S. morning relay team, bent over to stretch and ripped the back of his suit. A large part of his rear end was exposed.
Urged on by relay teammate Cullen Jones, Berens competed anyway, helping the U.S. team qualify for Sunday's final.
"I kind of freaked out for just a second," Berens said. "I felt like [the tear] was almost down to my knees. I felt like I was putting on a pretty good show."
He did, but it didn't match the show later.

Nathan Adrian Claims 100 Free Title
With six Olympic gold medalists contesting the men's 100 free finale at the USA Swimming National Championships, anyone could have claimed the title. California's Nathan Adrian, however, doubled up on the sprint victories after topping the 50 free.
Adrian clocked a personal-best time of 48.00, clearing his previous best of 48.10. He had to track down Matt Grevers of Tucson Ford, swimming in lane eight. Grevers went out under American-record pace with a 22.89 before finishing in 48.27 for fourth.
"The last 15 meters, you really have to keep your stroke together to get your hand on the wall," Adrian said. "I don't like to try to follow in anyone's footsteps. I make my own path."
Longhorn's Garrett Weber-Gale finished third in 48.19, while SwimMAC-Carolina's Cullen Jones clinched fifth in 48.31. Longhorn's Ricky Berens, the sixth gold medalist in the field, wound up sixth in 48.14.

Heavyhitting international swimmers like Cesar Cielo (49.02) and Fred Bousquet (49.42) relaxed during prelims knowing they could only qualify for B finals.
Meanwhile, Michael Phelps scratched from the event after waking up with a stiff neck.

Texas Blows Roof Off Pool With American, NCAA, U.S. Open Record to Win 800 Free Relay
COLLEGE STATION, Texas, March 27. THE University of Texas held off a hard charge from Arizona to end the Wildcats' three-year winning streak in the 800-yard free relay. And, the Longhorns did it with an American, NCAA and U.S. Open record.
Dave Walters leadoff the Texas relay with an American-record time of 1:31.72. That swim beat the 1:31.83 he set back in December and is the third-fastest 200 free of all time. Only Simon Burnett's NCAA and U.S. Open record 1:31.20 and Florida's Shaune Fraser's 1:31.70 posted this evening to win the individual title are faster.
Walters, Ricky Berens (1:32.15), Scott Jostes (1:33.20) and Michael Klueh (1:33.09) then finished off the relay American, NCAA, and U.S. Open record with a combined 6:10.16. The swim broke the previous record of 6:10.55 set by Texas last year at Big 12s.
The triumph gave Texas an NCAA-leading 10th title in the distance relay event. Texas previously won in 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2003.
Texas jumped back into the lead with Auburn taking eighth in 6:21.86. Texas will enter the final day of action with 348 points, ahead of Auburn's second-place 342. Stanford (298.5), California (239) and Arizona (229) made up the rest of the top five.
