They’re not in a hurry. Pat Tarpey leads at the quarter in 62.2, with Penn grad Sam Burley second. Tarpey still leads at 880 in 2:03.3, with Alex Bean second. Those two start to pull away from the field on the backstretch. Tarpey continues to lead at the bell in 3:04.4. Villanova alum Jason Jabaut drew even on the final curve and took the lead on the homestretch. It was short-lived as Graeme Wells snuck by everyone in the final 50 meters to win in 4:04.41. Jabaut was second in 4:05.04 with Burley third in 4:05.36.
