US Nationals Day 5 Finals: Shaine Casas Edges Carson Foster in Men’s 200 IM
Shaine Casas was sensational during prelims and Carson Foster wasn’t far behind in the 200 IM at the 2025 U.S. National Championships.
So the question was, could anyone stop the two training partners?
Casas took the early lead and was still ahead through the breaststroke, just ahead of Foster.
Foster started pulling within striking distance in the freestyle and they fittingly touched the wall together.
Casas was first in 1:55.73 just three hundredths of a second ahead of Foster (1:55.76), as both swimmers put a cap on their sensational weeks, making the team in multiple events.
Trenton Julian finished third in 1:57.59, ahead of Owen McDonald (1:57.98) at US Nationals.
