We started with the 500 and 4:34's from both Brooks and Talarick and a very nice 4:37 from Sloan establishing the tone for the night.
Willbrant, steamed to a 1:53 IM and then Juan Moliere took the title in the 50 Free at :20.77.
Later on the 200 Free Relay was led off again by Juan in a blazing :20.48 as the team of Moliere, Bromage, Vozella, and Priest got touched out by two one hundredths for 1st place by a quick Duquesne team. I must say they followed the coach's orders and held their starts as we are moving into the team score lead and didn't want any DQ's.
At the end of the evening we've extended the distance over SBU to 76 points with a strong day coming tomorrow. Brian Schmidt, Zack Priest, Derek Castellana, and Mike Berthaume haven't swum an individual event yet and they are chomping at the bit!
Our fans were awesome, pumping up the volume and exhorting the UMass swimmers to extra effort. Full results should be on the UMass athletics website soon or at www.atlantic10.org

Looking good guys, keep focused! Russ, thanks for the updates they're great. Much better than plain splits and stats.
