Looks like the Kenyon men just have their eyes on nationals. Arthur Conover is only in 2 events–and both of them are “off” events–200 fly & back. It will be interesting to see if they have Trevor Manz keep with the 200 IM at nats- (vs the 400). Not sure he can stay with Wilson & Holder–but it would be fun to find out.

The Metropolitan Conference is not listed in this article which is made up of almost all D3 schools including TCNJ. Is it considered a D2 conference because there are a couple D2 teams?

First of all The Metropolitan Conference is a “Coaches Conference” it is not a Division 3 or Division 2 Conference Championship. It is comprised of Division 1, Division 2, and Division 3 teams. 12 of the 20 teams are Division 3 but that is only 60 percent of the schools…… There are 7 Division 2 teams and 1 Division 1 team (Saint Francis). Only a few schools use as it primarily Conference Championship Meet.
