Senior takes seventh in the nation in 200 breaststroke<\/h3>\n

Four years ago, Emily McClellan<\/a> didn’t know if she wanted to swim collegiately.<\/p>\n

But for the second-straight year, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee senior became an NCAA First-Team All-American after finishing seventh overall in the 200 breaststroke at the NCAA Women’s Swimming & Diving Championships at the University of Minnesota Aquatic Center Saturday.<\/p>\n

McClellan capped off her remarkable UWM career with a time of 2:06.98 in the A-final for seventh place in the nation. That was faster than her time of 2:07.33 in the morning prelims and just shy of her own UWM and Horizon League record.<\/p>\n

“It was a good ending,” Milwaukee head coach Kyle Clements<\/a> said. “She dropped some time going from this morning to tonight. It was the way to end it. That race hurts, especially at the end of a long three days here. That was a lot of guts and a lot of heart put into that last one. Probably not quite the place that she wanted but I couldn’t be prouder.”<\/p>\n

“It was a good finish to a great career.”<\/p>\n

Added McClellan, “This is awesome. The cherry on top.”<\/p>\n

Milwaukee finishes the meet with 29 points for 26th place. That is higher than 27 other universities that scored at the national meet – including the likes of Ohio State, Missouri and Michigan – and numerous others that did not factor in the final scoring.<\/p>\n

Saturday’s results come off the heels of an outstanding day in the pool Friday where McClellan became the second-fastest swimmer on the planet in the 100 breaststroke. Her time of 57.76 placed her second overall behind only American record holder Breeja Larson.<\/p>\n

The Panther phenom also had a strong showing in the 200 IM on the first day of the national meet, touching the wall at 1:57.84, just shy of her own school and league record for 28th place overall.<\/p>\n

This caps an outstanding four-year career at Milwaukee for McClellan. She finishes her career having broken the 100 breaststroke, 200 breaststroke and 200 IM school and league records a combined 23 times and is the most decorated swimmer in Horizon League history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
