Williams Swim Team Wraps Up SeasonWilliams Sports Info - February 11, 2008
MIDDLEBURY, Vt. - The Williams College swimming and diving teams competed in the final day of the Middlebury Invitational on Saturday afternoon racking up a number of first- and second-place finishes.
This marked the final competition in the stellar four-year careers of Daniella Johnson and Nicole Glennon for the women's team (6-2) and Jeremy Doernberger, Henry Burton and Yevgeniy Korunskiy on the men's team (8-0).
"I'm very proud of the effort of our seniors who finished up their Eph careers," said head coach Steve Kuster. “I’m very happy with the performances of everyone who ended their season today.”
Some of the women who excelled in their final action of the 2007-08 season were juniors Kristan McIntosh and Emily Gray, and sophomores Abby Islan and Tracey Vitchers.
The Eph women grabbed four event victories and four second-place finishes. The top performances were first-year Erin Altenburger in the 100-yard backstroke (1:01.41), sophomore Christina Metcalf in the 100-yard breaststroke, senior Michelle Kurkul in the 200-yard backstroke (2:11.93), and sophomore Lisa Cucolo in the 200-yard IM (2:12.58).
The second-place finishes for the Ephs were Cucolo in the 100-yard breaststroke (1:09.47), Metcalf in the 200-yard IM (2:15.32), Islan in the 200-yard breaststroke (2:38.67), and first-year Ryan McChesney in the 200-yard freestyle (1:58.74).
"Today we saw some good NESCAC tune up swims and some great end of season swims," said Kuster.
The Eph women now look forward to defend their conference title at the NESCAC Championships starting Feb. 22.
Among the men who excelled were junior Ben Bodurian, sophomore Austin Stanley and first-year Justin Marsh.
The Eph men grabbed two event victories and six second-place finishes. Senior Chris Millen bested the field in the 100-yard freestyle (47.63) and swam second in the 100-yard breaststroke (1:01.66), while junior Norman Scott had the top time in the 200-yard IM.
Rounding out the top times for the Ephs were Doernberger in the 200-yard backstroke (2nd – 1:58.51), Burton in the 200-yard butterfly (2nd – 2:02.17), Stanley in the 200-yard breaststroke (2nd – 2:15.44), Blackford in the 100-yard butterfly (2nd – 54.09), and senior Alex Wentworth-Ping in the 500-yard freestyle (2nd – 4:51.67).
"Today we saw some good NESCAC tune up swims and some great end of season swims," said Kuster.
