Lochte’s return makes splash

STANFORD, CALIF.— Olympic champ Ryan Lochte made an emphatic return to competition, swimming the fourth-fastest time by an American in the 200-metre individual medley at the national championships at Stanford University. Lochte is entered in the 100 butterfly, 100 and 200 backstrokes and 200 and 400 IM this week, but hasn’t decided which events he will focus on for the Olympics.
