Junior Oliver McCormick (Doylestown, PA/Central Bucks South) swam the second leg of the second place men's 200 Medley Relay before going 2-0 in his individual distance events in the Knight's loss to conference foe Lycoming at home on Saturday.  McCormick finished the 1000 Freestyle (11.00.91) 33 seconds ahead of Lycoming's Myles Bigss, later going on to win the 500 Freestyle (5:21.25). 

According to head coach Ryan Weathers, “Oliver has steadily improved his leadership role throughout this season.”  McCormick has always been a top talent for the Knights and holds records in the 500 freestyle (5:05.37), 1000 freestyle (10:47.96), 1650 freestyle (18:00.35), and the 100 breastroke (1:04.56).  Looking ahead to the conference championships in mid-February, coach Weather adds, "Oliver has made an impact at the conference level and has the potential to final in everything he swims at the MAC championships."
