Notes:
The Spartans' win streak gets snapped at 12 with the loss to Washington & Lee … the 12 meet win streak is the new school record, eclipsing the previous record of 10 set by the 2009-10 Spartan men's squad … junior Morgan Schreiber increased his team lead in individual victories to 16 as he won a trio of events on Saturday … Schreiber was victorious in the 100 and 200 backstroke and the 200 IM … Schreiber was the only Spartan to earn a victory in the meet … freshman Greg Williams finshed a mere .22 seconds back of Schreiber in the 200 backstroke … Williams also finished third in the 100 backstroke …. freshman Jesse Tate earned a pair of third place finishes for the Spartans … Washington & Lee swam the 200 IM and the 200 freestyle relay as exhibitions as the meet scores were long decided … York remained perfect in the CAC with the win over Marymount … prior to the meet the Spartans recognized their seniors as Tim McCullough, Matthew Terrell, Russell Stoll, and Ian Kruper were competing in their final home swim meet of their careers.
Up Next:
The Spartans conclude their regular season next Saturday as they travel to the University of Mary Washington to face the Eagles in York's regular season finale. The action next Saturday in Fredericksburg begins at 1:00 pm.
