Men's Swimming & Diving Defeated By D-II Wheeling

Complete Results

STEUBENVILLE, Ohio --
 The Allegheny College men's swimming and diving team went head-to-head with Division II Wheeling University during Saturday's meeting at Franciscan University. 

The Gators (5-2) fell to the D-II Cardinals (6-1), 173-25. Although Franciscan hosted the tri-meet, the Barons don't field a men's team and only competed in the women's events.

In the 200-yard freestyle race, Christian Habusta (Erie, Pa./Fairview) and Carl Cogan (Pittsburgh, Pa./Obama Academy) finished less than a second apart. Habusta placed fourth at 2:07.23, followed closely by Cogan at 2:07.91. In the 50 free, Lukas Beach (Zionsville, Ind./Zionsville Community) and Oscar Zúñiga (San Luis Potosi, Mexico/Instituto Potosino Marista) were separated by just over two seconds, with Beach touching the wall in 25.74 seconds and Zúñiga finishing in 27.98 seconds. 

Sam Kohler (Pittsburgh, Pa./Avonworth) anchored the 200-yard medley relay before taking on the 1,000-yard freestyle. He finished the distance race third in 10:51.41.
