"What an exciting morning of fast swimming and diving," head coach Dan Colella said. "The coaching staff was impressed with everyone's energy and enthusiasm. A number of freshmen had fast performances for their first outing. I think we are set up nicely for our meet in two weeks when we open at Virginia Tech."
Senior Cole Reznick touched first in three individual events, the 50 breaststroke, 100 individual medley and the 150 breaststroke. Reznick also teamed up with freshman Evan Greer, junior Charlie Gingrich and junior Brad Sanford to place first in the 400 medley relay.

Hallaron and Whelan teamed up with Coleman Kredich and Zach McIntyre to touch first in the 200 freestyle relay.
Â
The other men's event winners were sophomore David Chang in the 50 backstroke and junior Brendan Driscoll in the 800 freestyle.
Â
Freshman Yixuan Chang placed first in two individual events to lead the women Blue Devils. She took the top spot in the 150 butterfly and 800 freestyle. The rookie also helped two relay teams place first, the 400 medley relay and the 200 freestyle relay.
Â
Sophomore Catherine Belyakov also secured a pair of first place finishes. A native of Gaithersburg, Md., she placed first in the 100 individual medley and the 150 breaststroke in addition to touching second in the 50 breaststroke.
