ANNAPOLIS, Md. – The Lehigh men's swimming and diving team put together strong swims in their final day of competition at Day 4 of the Patriot League Championships at Lejeune Hall. The Mountain Hawks ended up finishing the meet in sixth place at 201 points.
"I thought the senior men took the charge on the last day," said head coach Rob Herb. "They brought a big finish to their final Patriots. You want meets to end well and they did just that."
Fresh off claiming silver on Friday night in the 50-yard backstroke, senior Owen Thomas took seventh in the 200-yard back A-final, swimming to a time of 1:50.12.
Senior Glenn Lasco finished fifth in the 100-yard freestyle (44.50) and to close out the meet in the 400-yard freestyle relay, Aiden McCurley (46.06), Alex Patti (45.89), Joe Huber (46.29) and Lasco (44.34) put together a sixth-place finish at a time of 3:02.58.
Both Connor Sept (200 Breast) and Connor Goodyear (200 Fly) qualified for B-Finals, but as alternates, thus not getting a chance to compete for points Saturday evening.
"I also want to shout-out associate head coach Erin Matyus, who had a lot to juggle with a big meet this week," Herb said. "She kept this ship moving forward, a truly amazing job by Coach Erin."
