Joseph Pyon has told SwimSwam that he will transfer to St. Bonaventure for the upcoming 2025-2026 school year. Pyon will join the Bonnies after spending two seasons at BYU.
Pyon will make the trip back east after hailing from Gainesville, Florida. Pyon did not swim at a conference championship as a freshman, instead finishing his season in the dual meet against Utah.
As a sophomore, Pyon swam numerous best times at midseason including a 47.85 100 fly and a 1:50.86 200 IM. He finished his season at the 2025 Big 12 Championships where he finaled in the 200 fly swimming a 1:47.88 in prelims for 21st before finishing 23rd in finals. He swam a lifetime best 1:50.57 in the 200 IM.
Pyon’s Best SCY Times:
- 100 fly: 47.85
- 200 fly: 1:47.80
- 200 IM: 1:50.57
The St. Bonaventure men finished 2nd at the 2025 Atlantic-10 Championships with 517.5 points. George Washington captured the conference title with 883.5 points.
Leading the way for the Bonnies was Alexander Behr who scored 45 individual points and was highlighted by a 2nd place finish in the 200 fly with a 1:43.80. Aidan Kreiley scored the 2nd most individual points on the team with 39 and was highlighted by a conference title in the 100 breast (53.30).
Based on his best times, Pyon adds depth to the butterfly group as Behr led the team in both events with a 46.94 100 fly and 1:43.80 200 fly. Behr notably just finished his senior season so there are some gaps to fill in the group. Pyon would have been 3rd on the team this past season in both events along with his 200 IM. It took a 47.84 to make the Atlantic-10 ‘A’ final in the 100 fly while it took a 1:47.48 in the 200 fly.
