Men's Divers Qualify on Both Boards and Break One School Record

11/7/2021 7:51:00 PM

CLEVELAND – Rochester returned to the water and gave a good accounting of itself in a meet against Case Western Reserve University on Sunday. The top finisher for the Yellowjacket women was either second (five events) or third (five events) along with a diving title. Rochester's men had similar numbers – five seconds, five thirds, and two victories – on both diving boards.
 
The biggest news came from the diving well where David Robinson posted his second qualifying score on the one meter board (six optionals) and broke a Rochester record on the three meter board (six optionals). Adam Hopson produced his first three meter qualifying score this season.
 
Robinson won both diving events. He had a 281.32 on the one meter (which was his qualifying score) and a 345.01 on the three meter board. The three meter score broke the existing Rochester record set by Stephen Savchik in 2020 (325.50). Hopson was second on both boards – 273.45 on the one meter and 286.05 on the three meter (to qualify for diving regionals in late winter).
 
Both relay teams swam to third place finishes. The 400 medley relay team (Jeremy Mah, Alexander Cho, Ed Domanico, and Trevor Hoch) was timed in 3:35.81. The 400 freestyle relay (Johnny Wu, Grant Yap, Bryce Berkhof, and Hoch) was timed in 3:125.75.
 
In addition to his relay work, Hoch swam the sprint freestyle races, timed in 0:21.77 in the 50 (third place) and 0:48.76 in the 100 (second place). Berkhof was second (1:48.80) and Wu third (1:49.09) in the 200 yard freestyle. Cho was third in the 100 breaststroke (1:00.37). Mah was third in the 200 backstroke (2:03.52). Domanico was fifth in the 100 fly (0:54.18).
 
Jose Corredor Alvarez took runnerup honors in the 1,000 freestyle (10:03.80) and was fourth in the 500 free (4:51.61). Frank Li was fifth in the 200 individual medley (2:02.25) and fifth in the 200 fly (2:05.43). Matt Kiel swam a 2:14.26 in the 200 breaststroke and finished second. Chris Bushnell hit the wall in 0:54.44 and finished second in the 100 backstroke.
