For the last three years, Max McHugh has been the face of two different things in the world of swimming: the men’s 100-yard breast and the University of Minnesota. He’s constantly the favorite to win the 100 breast at NCAAs, dominating his races from start to finish, and his points always single-handedly bring the Golden Gophers into the top 25. But tonight in his final collegiate meet, the two things that defined McHugh’s collegiate career came together, as the fifth-year senior won his third-straight 100 breast NCAA title in front of a roaring home crowd.
McHugh touched the wall in a time of 50.00, beating out runner-up Van Mathias by 0.6 seconds. He swam the fifth-fastest time in history, and was just 0.1 seconds off his best time of 49.90 that makes him the second-fastest performer of all-time. His win marks the first time in three years that a male swimmer has won an individual NCAA title at their home pool, as the last time this was done was when Texas’s Townley Haas and John Shebat won titles in 2019.
