JCU Mixes Things Up In Win Over Baldwin Wallace

Head coach Mark Fino likes to mix up the line-up every so often.

After a tough loss in a close battle with Wooster Friday night, a few new faces popped up in a few new events, and the result was a 142-94 victory over Baldwin Wallace Saturday afternoon in Berea.

Complete Results vs Baldwin Wallace

The opening race was a familiar gathering of Jack Garrow, David Kirtek, Jackson Cooper and Tom Pacak in the 200 Medley Relay. The quartet clocked in at 1:38.62 for a first place showing.

Alex Nucerino stepped to the forefront in the 1000 Free, and came away with a victory with a time of 10:43.11.

Matt Ramsey had no times listed in the 200 Free, so he announced his arrival in this event with a victory, posting a time of 1:48.97.

Pacak and Cooper both added wins later in the meet. Pacak collected a victory in the 100 Free (49.16) while Cooper picked up a first place effort in the 100 Back (56.15)

In the last race of the day, Ramsey, Kirtek, Brian Hulseman and Pacak teamed up to win the 200 Free Relay in 1:29.33.

Douglas Hinchen scored a win in diving for the Blue Streaks, as he won the 1-meter voluntary diving competition with a score of 129.45 points

On Friday at Wooster, the John Carroll men lost for just the second time this season, and for the first time since a three-point setback to Mount Union on November 5, with a 127-110 defeat.
