Love seeing the development of UConn’s Juniors. Three wins and three great relay wins from Wroblewski and Dunlap alone! Beyond the juniors, North Hansen’s 1000 win, Kearsey’s 48.5 100 Back, Rowan King, Billy Regan and Jack Muratori‘s performances were huge as well. Understand: Army won this one 199-95 last year so UConn wins this tie.

UConn showed some fight this weekend and have a big weekend in Boston Friday/Saturday. They should handle BC but get handled by Duke. Here’s some races UConn will target:

1000: Hansen vs Washert/Driscoll
200: Wroblewski/Jurcik vs Boboff (first 1:38 UConn’s seen)
100 Br: King/Regan vs Reznick/Zucker
100 Ba: Kearsey vs Hartley
50 Fr: Kearsey vs Whalen/Gingrich
200 Ba: Chernysh/Holman vs… Read more »

Look at their dual meet results the past couple of years. They rested for this and they rested hard.

I am looking at their dual meet results. A number of kids were a shade slower here than they were at their Intersquad two weeks ago. If you have any questions, compare these times with Rutgers in five weeks.
