COMPLETE RESULTS

BLOOMSBURG, Pa. - The Bloomsburg University men's swimming team earned its fourth consecutive victory on Friday night with a 123-82 win over visiting Clarion University at the Nelson Field House Pool. With the win, the Huskies improved to 4-2 overall in dual meets this season.

Sophomore Colton Schnars (Bellefonte, Pa./Bellefonte) led the Huskies with three victories on Friday night - one individual and two relays - while senior Jordan Wyant (Mechanicsburg, Pa./Trinity) provided two Bloomsburg wins - one individual and one relay. Redshirt senior Kyle Dix (Schwenksville, Pa./Perkiomen Valley) and freshman Tucker Ball (New Cumberland, Pa./Cedar Cliff) had the other individual wins on the night with five others having a hand in relay-winning foursomes - redshirt junior Matt Rocchi (Philadelphia, Pa./Archbishop Ryan), junior Collin Hummel (Lewisburg, Pa./Lewisburg), sophomore Jace Fry (Palmyra, Pa./Lower Dauphin), sophomore Pat Agnew (Pottstown, Pa./Pottsgrove), and freshman Luke Emig (Horsham, PA/Hatboro - Horsham).

A total of 15 different swimmers combined to post 17 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) qualifying marks on Friday night as a number of the Huskies competed in different races to attempt to have qualifying times in multiple events for the conference meet in February. Rocchi and Wyant led the way with two qualifying marks while Emig, Agnew, Fry, Dix, Schnars, Ball, redshirt junior Tyler Reed (Hereford, Pa./Upper Perkiomen), sophomore Carson Hilliard (Collegeville, Pa./Spring-Ford), freshman Brian Harrell (New Canaan, CT/New Canaan), freshman Ryan Keenan (Collegeville, Pa./Perkiomen Valley), freshman Luke Scoboria (Birdsboro, PA/Exeter), freshman Blake Nesbitt (Wind Gap, PA/Nazareth), and junior Noah Cancro (Limerick, Pa./Spring-Ford) had one each.

The Huskies opened the night with a season-best time in the 200-yard medley relay as Schnars, Rocchi, Fry, and Agnew completed the event in 1:35.45 - three seconds faster than the Huskies' "B" quartet of Ball, Nesbitt, Scoboria, and Reed.

Bloomsburg's first individual win of the night came from Wyant who posted a time of 21.96 to capture first-place honors. Fry actually posted the best time in the event at 21.80 but competed as an exhibition. Dix followed with a victory in the 200-yard individual medley with a time of 1:56.76 for the fourth-best mark in the conference this season. It was his first time competing in the event during the campaign.

Schnars picked up his individual victory in the 100-yard butterfly with the fourth-fastest swim of the season in the conference at 50.75. Ball then captured the Huskies' fourth individual win of the night in the 100-yard backstroke as he touched the wall in 55.12.

The Huskies closed out the night in style as Schnars, Emig, Wyant, and Hummel teamed up for a time of 1:25.44 in the 200-yard freestyle relay.

Bloomsburg returns to action on Saturday, November 16, when it travels to Dickinson College for a non-conference dual meet in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Action gets underway at 1:00 p.m.
