Day 2 finals of the 2016 Hokie Fall Invite saw the Virginia Tech men put on a dominant display, while the women had a back-and-forth battle with Purdue throughout the session.

Leading the way for the Hokie women was Klaudia Nazieblo, who took two wins in the 100 fly and 100 back. In the 100 fly, her 53.51 got by 2nd place finisher Taite Kitchel (53.86), who led a charge of six Purdue women who finished 2nd through 7th. In the 100 back, Nazieblo clocked 53.79 for another close win for teammate Fiona Donnelly (54.04).

On the men’s side, 2016 ACC champion Brandon Fiala of Virginia Tech had a strong performance in the 100 breast, clocking a time of 53.15 for the easy win by over a full second.

Overall, the Hokie men won all but one event tonight, with Filip Bujoczek of Purdue the only non-Virgina Tech winner, claiming the 200 free in 1:38.06.
