BLOOMSBURG – The Bloomsburg University men's swim team will battle against West Chester on Saturday, Oct. 29 at the Nelson Field House pool beginning at 1:00 p.m.
 
Bloomsburg - Men:
 
Last season the Huskies had one their best season ever under head coach Stu Marvin. The men's team posted a record of dual 7-2 and placed second at the PSAC championships for the third time in four years.
 
The Huskies graduated eight seniors last year, so captains Eric Usbeck (Lake Ariel, Pa./Wallenpaupack), Ryan Paisley (Hazleton, Pa./Hazleton Area), and Sam Feiser (Pottstown, Pa./Owen J. Roberts) are looking to take the next step and lead the team. Seniors A.J. Brady (Wilmington, Del./Delaware Military Academy) and Pat Stasio (Horsham, Pa./Hatboro-Horsham) are also looking to have great seasons as they finish off their collegiate careers.
 
Bloomsburg is looking to improve in the areas of middle distance and distance events. Logan Winchester (Reading, Pa./Exeter Township) led the team in these categories last season. Joining Winchester will be juniors Alex McCullough (Pottstown, Pa./Owen J. Roberts) and Frank Dello Buono (West Chester, Pa./Bayard Rustin), along with freshman Doug Boehme (Blue Bell, Pa./Buxmont Christian Academy), Michael Fiscus (Ocean City, N.J./Ocean City) and Liam Schroeder (Coatesville, Pa./Coatesville).
