Every so often, a team has a season that will be remembered for years. The men’s swimming and diving team put together such a season this year. Led by a gifted group of seniors, Princeton swept its Ivy League competition and finished its perfect Ancient Eight season with a dominating performance at the Ivy League Championships from March 5 to March 7.
This weekend at the NCAA Championships in College Station, Texas, the Tigers had a chance to put an exclamation point on an already impressive season. They did just that. Seniors Doug Lennox, Will Schaffer, Dan Eckel and Mike Carter, junior Jon Hartmann and freshman Colin Cordes represented the Tigers at the two-day meet. The six swimmers returned to DeNunzio Pool on Sunday evening with a top-25 finish in the meet and a series of All-America honors.
