team to make sure they are human and

The Lions broke seven meet records
at the Blue-White meet. This past week
end, they broke six more pool records
en route to victories over Fredonia State
and Buffalo State.
Behrend hosted Fredonia State Fri
day night in the season opener. The
men's
team won 99-71. Seven first-place fin
ishes and a sweep in the men's 200-
meeter. 1M helped pace the Lions to vic-
Freshmen J.R. DeLorenzo, Carl
Ward, and Travis Kochel provided the
speed, while senior Ben Atkins excelled
in the distance events for Behrend.

"For the guys, we expected to win.
Fredonia State is a new team. We went
in the meets confident that we would win,
knowing we were the better team, and
that's exactly what we did," said Atkins.
The women's team was unable to beat
Fredonia State, falling 128-90. Return
ers Tara Braden and Christine Williams
continued their dominance. Braden won
the 1000 freestyle and the 100 back
stroke. Williams won the 200 IM and
the 500 freestyle.
Sophomore Jana Bahnak and freshmen
Loren Stachowaik and Danielle Rearick
also contributed points for Behrend.
"This past weekend I expected the girls
team to win a lot of their races and
have good swims, but winning either
meet was going to be tough since both
had at least two divers and we don't have
any," said Braden.
Moving into Saturday's competition
against Buffalo State wasn't an easy task

for the Lions
"This two-day type of format is very
hard, especially if it is the first two meets
of the season. It is very difficult to go
all out one day and then be expected to
step up and do it again. However, the
teams stepped up to the challenge and
we accomplished a lot," said head coach
Josh Heynes.
"Accomplished a lot" is somewhat of
an understatement. Behrend set six new
pool records and qualified 17 people for
the ECAC Championship in
December.
Against Buffalo State, the men's team
wasted no time in picking up where it
left off Friday night. The Lions scored
a 130-74 rout and remained undefeated
on the weekend.
The men had nine first-place finishes
and had a medal sweep in the 200 but
terfly and the 200 IM. The men also set
three of the six pool records.

DeLorenzo set the 200 yd. Backstroke
record, Eric Phillips set the 200
breaststroke record, and Ward set the 200
butterfly record.
On the women's side, the Lions had a
tough time staying with Buffalo State
and
lost 112-100
"The women's team was able to come
within 12 points of an established team
with divers. Since our squad does not
have divers, we start each meet in the
hole.
For everyone to step up and swim for
the team really impressed me," said
coach Jen Slack.
More impressive is the fact that the
squad was able to set three new pool
records in the process. Williams and
Braden stepped up again and set records
in the 200 backstroke and the 200 breast
stroke, respectively. Jana Bahnak also
set a record in the 200 butterfly.

Williams is considered the go-to girl
because of her ability to swim all the
strokes and swim them well. Braden
and freshman Rearick provide a one-two
punch in the distance events to balance
out the women's team.
Excited about his teams' starts to the
season, Heynes expects to keep up the
intensity and get more swimmers quali
fied for ECAC Championships in
December.
"I look at the team as a whole to set
new standards and then to push those
standards. I look at the upperclassmen
to lead by example, because they know
what it takes to succeed. I look at the
incoming class to shake things up and
turn heads," said Heynes.
And if the records keep falling at this
rate, Behrend will definitely be turning
heads.
