He posted 182.5 points in the one-meter event and 185.20 points in the three-meter event. The Hens also got third place finishes from the 400 freestyle relay team (3:23.59) of Colin Gibson (Radnor/Villanova, PA), Michael Rasch (Emmaus/Allentown, PA), Joe Virion (Concord/Wilmington, DE), and Jeff Shields (Lawrence/Lawrenceville, NJ), Stephen Wolf (Middletown/Townsend, DE) in the one-meter dive (146.85), Brendan Spencer (Yorktown/Arlington, VA) in the 200 backstroke (2:01.19), and Virion in the 500 freestyle (4:55.93).
