Utah Men's Swimming and Diving Dominates UNLV
11/2/2018 8:47 PM | Men's Swimming & Diving
LAS VEGAS - The Utah men's swimming and diving team captured 11 events en route to an easy victory at UNLV this evening
Â
"I am really proud of the team's performance," head coach Joe Dykstra said. "After another difficult week of training and a six hour bus ride, we came out swinging with the relay performances. It was great to pick up another road win."
Â
The event started with the Utes rolling in the 400 medley relay. Daniel McArthur, Andrew Britton, Colten Montgomery and Felix Chiun won with a time of 3:19.25. McArthur returned for the 200 back, which he won in 1:48.21. Chiun eventually teamed with Rodolfo Moreira, Clay Stoddard and Austin Phillips to close the meet with a victory in the 200 free relay (1:20.59).
Â
Stoddard and Phillips also captured individual wins in the 50 free and 100 free respectively. The Utes made it a clean sweep in the freestyle events as Rahiti De Vos won the 200 in 1:41.20 and the 500 in 4:32.89. Freshman Nick Becker took the 1000 in 9:23.73 to cap a solid showing.
Â
Other Utah winners included Jackson Cunningham in the 400 IM (4:01.07), Chris Taber in the 200 fly (1:48.51) and Ethan Dillard in the 200 breast (2:06.45).
Â
On the boards, newcomer Rylan Little was second on the one-meter with a score of 283.75
Â
The divers are back in action next weekend at the USC Invitational while the swimmers will travel to the Minnesota Invitational at the end of the month.
