Men's Swimming & Diving Team Topples Springfield

01/16/08

Though a new year has begun, the winning ways for New York University men's swimming and diving team has remained unchanged. The Violets defeated the Springfield College Pride 139-104 today at the Palladium Athletic Facility to move to 7-0 on the season.

Leading the way for NYU was junior Paul Hogan, who won both the 1,000-yard free in 9:57.12 and the 500-yard free in 4:51.45. Senior captain Brad Thornton was also impressive, helping the 400-yard medley relay team, along with senior captain Matt Ferreira, senior Andrew Guyton and junior Andrew Lardiere to victory in 3:37.92. Thornton also won the 200 IM (2:00.20) and anchored the winning 400 free relay team (3:13.19) with Lardiere, senior Chris Wolff and sophomore Eric Pcholinski.

Other individual winners for the Violets included freshman Andrew King in the 200 free (1:48.82) and junior Eric Wang in the 200 fly (2:00.26).

NYU next returns to action on Saturday, January 26, as they take on The College of New Jersey at the Palladium Athletic Facility.
