DH Hwang won the 200 fly vs. Tribe
WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - DH Hwang's win in the 200-yard butterfly paced GW men's swimming and diving at William & Mary on Saturday.
The Colonials continued preparations for the upcoming Atlantic 10 Championships with the difficult test, falling 138-67 to the five-time defending CAA champion Tribe at W&M Recreation Center.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Hwang's winning 200 fly time of 1:52.54 was a personal best, edging William & Mary's Steven Thalblum by three-tenths of a second.
- First-year Zach Hu was runner-up in both distance races, finishing the 1,000 free in 9:49.12 and the 500 free in 4:45.59.
- Haoning Chen led the Buff and Blue in a pair of events. The graduate student who joined the squad for this semester was second in the 200 breast (2:05.22) and third in the 200 IM (1:55.30).
- Andrew Cho was runner-up in the 200 back in 1:51.00, just ahead of teammate Ryan Patterson (1:53.61). The senior from California was also part of GW's second-place effort in the 200 medley relay with Chen, George Aspougalis and Max Forstenhaeusler (1:31.57).
- Dylan Arzoni took second in the 200 free in 1:42.24.
- Forstenhaeusler, Youssef Ragab, Tyler Kawakami and Moritz Fath teamed up to take second in the meet-closing 200 free relay in 1:23.53.
UP NEXT: GW closes out its regular season next Saturday at West Virginia in its final meet before the A-10 Championships, which run Feb. 19-22 at the SPIRE Institute in Geneva, Ohio.
