Men's Swimming Pushes Win Streak to 24 with Win Over Misericordia

GLENSIDE - The Arcadia University men's swim team opened its home schedule with a 171-91 victory over Misericordia University in a Middle Atlantic Conference (MAC) meet at Lenox Pool on Saturday afternoon. The Knights finished first in all but three events to push their consecutive win streak over Division III opponents to 24 dual meets.

FULL RESULTS 

HOW IT HAPPENED 
- Shane Stauffer, George Wade, Janis Kirsis and Ryan Erdman came in first in the 200-yard medley relay. Erdman anchored the squad with a time of 22.08. 

- In the 1000-yard freestyle, Dylan Alexander recorded a season best time of 10:26.56 for a first place finish. Owen Foley was third to touch the wall with a time of 10:56.02, immediately followed by Adam Smith who finished with a time of 10:57.79. 

- Kirsis also won a pair of individual events; the 200-yard freestyle (1:48.89) and 100-yard butterfly (53.84). Kirsis missed his personal-best in the 200 by three seconds and was less than a second from his career best in the 100 butterfly.

- Stauffer had a great performance winning the 100-yard freestyle event for a season-best time of 48.84, just over a second away from his personal-best time.

- Kevin Foley claimed a 100-yard breaststroke win and a 2nd place finish in the 200-yard breaststroke. 

- Erdman won the 50-yard freestyle in 22.85 

- Tyler Mui finished second in the 50 free with a time of 22.96, six-tenths of a second off his career-best set last season at the Ranger Invitational host. 

- First-year George Mitev collected his first collegiate win in the 200-yard butterfly in 2:07.13, one-tenth of a second better in the event than last week at Scranton.
