On Friday, Ryan swam in the finals of the 200y free and finished first with a time of 1:35.88. He also finished first in the 100y fly with a time of 47.52. The fly must have been a very exciting race because Ryan beat Shaune Frasier by only .16.
On Saturday, Ryan swam in the finals of the 200y IM and the 500y free. He placed first in the 200y IM with a time of 1:44.88, and his breaststroke leg was where he really pulled away.

Minnesota Grand Prix - Friday Finals Results & Saturday Prelims
Friday Finals
Ryan placed 3rd in the 100y breast with a time of 54.41, almost a second faster than prelims. Ryan placed 2nd in the 100y fly with a time of 47.31. Ryan led the entire race until Ricky Berens shot ahead on the last wall.
Here's what www.swimmingworldmagazine.com had to say about the races:

Men's 100 Breast
Tucson Ford's Mike Alexandrov obliterated the field in his specialty event. Alexandrov posted a fast 52.13, not far off his American record of 51.56. Barry Murphy, an Irish swimmer swimming unattached for Club Wolverine, claimed runner-up honors in 54.09, holding off superstar Ryan Lochte. Lochte, swimming unattached from Gator Swim Club, managed a 54.41 for third in one of his weakest events. Lochte looked particularly fatigued during the race, losing ground on his typically-outstanding turns. Notably, 100 back national champion David Plummer made a rare appearance in a breaststroke race. Plummer, representing Minnetonka Swim Club, posted a fifth-place time of 55.18.
Men's 100 Fly
Longhorn's Ricky Berens defeated his second Olympic gold medalist in one night, taking down Ryan Lochte in the 100 fly. Lochte led convincingly at the halfway mark, but Berens used a powerful final kickout and final 25 to chase down Lochte and earn the win in 46.77. Lochte, meanwhile, faded down the stretch, holding off Club Wolverine's Alon Mandel for second place, 47.31 to 47.42.

50y free - 20.36 (2nd place going into finals)

Looking at the results, this meet is like a duel meet between UF & FSU with some high school swimmers in the mix. Ryan was beat in the prelims by some UF swimmers.
