ANNAPOLIS, Md. – It was a fast first day of the Patriot League Championships on Wednesday night as the Lehigh men's and women's swimming and diving teams competed in its first events of the meet at Lejeune Pool on the campus of the United States Naval Academy. After the first three events and the first day of competition, the men sit sixth of 10 teams at 56 points and the women rank ninth of 10 team with 28 points.

Â
The night was headlined by the men's contingent of Owen Thomas, Connor Sept, Miles Cox and Glenn Lasco in the 200-yard medley relay, swimming to a time of 1:29.69 for a fifth-place finish, breaking the Lehigh men's school record in the event by .14 seconds, a record that was previously held by Thomas, Tyler Christ, Teddy Smith and Greg Giannella back in 2019.
Â
The record marked the Mountain Hawks' first school record broken all season on either the men's or women's side this year.

Â
On the women's side, the Mountain Hawks ended up being disqualified in the 200-yard medley relay with the quartet of Hallie Wilson, Danielle Prekop, Sarah Hardy and Ann Foley.
