With Senior Day just one week off, the men's swimming and diving
team had a chance for a number of competitors to step forward
– and they did in a big way as Rochester defeated Nazareth
College, 169-124 on Saturday afternoon.
The Yellowjackets (4-4) finished first in eight individual events,
won the diving competition, and captured the 200 meter medley
relay. Rochester swam the closing 400 meter freestyle relay as an
exhibition event and the time would have finished first by 10
seconds.
All the events were conducted in meters. Lee Stovall won two
events. He was first in the 200 meter freestyle (2:01.52) and the
100 freestyle (:56.76).
The other individual men's winners were Dylan Sharkey (first in the
800 free, 8:59.19), Russell Rosenkranz (first in the 50 backstroke,
:28.12), Pat Davis (first in the 50 breaststroke, :31.54), Brett
Maus (first in the 50 freestyle, :25.52), Arlen Fan (first in the
100 breaststroke, 1:12.28), and Brian Wong (first in the 50 fly,
:26.71).
On the winning 200 meter medley relay which launched the meet, the
Yellowjacket swimmers were Rosenkranz, Dan Myers, Wong, and A.J.
Brewer. The relay was timed in 1:52.16.
The 400 meter freestyle relay was comprised of Gunnar Zemering,
Sharkey, Stovall, and Nick Ranallo. They were timed in 3:43.67 as
an exhibition.
Rochester's other top finishers were Ryan Berger (third in the 100
fly, 1:07.36), James Frauen (second in the 100 back, 1:00.12), and
Max Gates (second in the 400 freestyle, 4:29.73). Reid swam the 200
IM as an exhibition and was timed in 2:21.82.

230.50.
