Friday was a big shakeout day at the 2025 Big Ten Championships, with the Indiana Hoosiers cementing their path to a fourpeat, Michigan pulling away from Ohio State for 2nd, and USC pulling away from a gaggle of teams chasing them for 4th in their Big Ten debut.
The session will feature some top tier head-to-head matchups like the 100 free, where the top three seeds come from each of the three front-running teams: Gal Groumi of Michigan, Tomas Navikonis of Ohio State, and Rafael Miroslaw of Indiana. The defending champion Bence Szabados of Michigan and Olympian Matt King are lurking in that race as well.
Prelims (10:00 AM Central Time) will be a short session, with heats of the 200 back, 100 free, 200 breast, and 200 fly. Early heats of the timed finals 1650 free will start at 3:15 Central Time, with finals at 5:30 Central Time. Finals will include the meet-ending 400 free relay.
After a best time for 3rd place in the 100 breaststroke last night (his first in that race in almost two years) , Indiana senior Josh Matheny comes in as the top seed in the 200 breaststroke, where he’s within reach of the Big Ten Championship Record.
