WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. – The host Williams Ephs posted a pool record to win the 800 freestyle relay to open the 2020 NESCAC Men’s Swimming & Diving Championship at Samuelson-Muir Pool.
The Williams team of senior Lucca Delcompare and juniors Henry Marquardt, David Pearcy, and Jamie Lovette broke the Ephs’ pool record with a time of 6:34.37. The Williams relay came close to setting a new NESCAC and NESCAC meet mark (6:34.03), which was set by an Ephs relay team that included Delcompare, Marquardt, and Lovette a year ago.
Amherst (6:43.64) and Tufts (6:44.59) finished second and third, respectively, and all three teams achieved NCAA B-cut times.
Day 2 of the NESCAC Championships begins at 10 a.m. on Friday with prelim swims. The preliminary rounds of the 1-meter diving competition are set for 2 p.m. and the finals will begin at 6 p.m. Live results are available at NESCAC.com.
