Swimming breaks records
Over the weekend the men's and women's swimming teams
traveled to Buffalo, NY to compete in the Atlantic 10 swimming Championships. Senior Michael Zennedjian
won the award for Atlantic 10's most outstanding performer while head coach Brent MacDonald was voted men's Coach of the Year by league coaches. The men's team finished the
meet in third place with 522 points while the women's team
finished in eighth with 246 points. The medal count total ended with Xavier winning four gold and six bronze medals.
Zennedjian, who won four gold medals over the course of
the weekend, has now totaled 16 medals over the course of four years swimming for Xavier. Out of those 16 medals, nine of them have been gold. Zennedjian posted a time of
1:48.85 seconds when he won the 200 yard butterfly. He then was able to win the 200-yard individual medley, the 400-yard medley and the 400-yard medley relay. Zennedjian won his gold in the 400-yard medley relay with juniors Pablo Morejon, Joe O'Hara and Samuel Conchuratt. During the men's 400 yard freestyle relay Zennedijan, Morejon,
Conchuratt, and sophomore Armando Moss won the bronze
with a final time of 3:01.78. Conchuratt was also able to
gather a bronze medal in the men's 200-yard individual medley when he came in third with a time of 1:49.49.
Morejon, Moss, Conchuratt and sophomore John Kinney earned another bronze medal in the men's 200-yard freestyle relay. They finished a little over a second
later than the winning group by posting a finishing time of
1:22.17. Freshman Carolyn Stewart, who had a strong rookie season, finished with two bronze medals. "We've never worked harder and it really showed this year. I'm
very proud of our team and what this means for our future," head coach Brent MacDonald said.
