STATEN ISLAND, NY - The College of Staten Island Swimming & Diving team hosted a second consecutive Northeast-10 (NE10) meet on Saturday afternoon at The Tank as they faced Saint Michael's College.
The CSI men dropped their meet by a score of 156.00-132.00. In another closely contested meet, the Dolphins fell 156.00–123.00 on the women's side.
The meet began with a pair of CSI victories in the 200-yard medley relay, but the Purple Knights responded with wins in both the men's and women's 100-yard freestyle. Maria Janecka then earned first-place points for the Dolphins in the 200-yard freestyle (2:00.81) and Vlad Siniagovskii posted the next first-place time for the men in the 100-yard backstroke (55.04). Polly Struck immediately followed that by taking first in the 100-yard breaststroke (1:12.13), and William Kwan took first place in the 200-yard butterfly (2:05.53). In the final event before the meet's first break, both Siniagovskii and Janecka placed first in the 50-yard freestyle with times of 22.77 and 25.09 respectively.
Women's 1-meter diving saw St. Michael's claim first and second place points while the men's 1-meter event saw Yubal Parra post a first-place score of 368.20. Later in the meet, Parra also earned first in 3-meter diving with a score of 320.25.
Following a brief break at the conclusion of diving, Janecka earned yet another first-place finish with a time of 55:01 in the 100-yard freestyle. Maja Tomaszewska posted a first-place time of 2:18.40 in the 200-yard backstroke, and Siniagovskii took first in the same event with a time of 2:03.90. Struck (2:35.60) and Kwan (2:17.72) swept the 200-yard backstroke for the Dolphins, the last CSI victories until the 200-yard IM. In that event, Struck placed first one again with a time of 2:19.70, the final first-place time for the Dolphins in the meet.
Both Men's and Women's Swimming and Diving will return to the Tank next Saturday, Nov. 1, for another NE-10 meet against Pace University at 1:00 PM.
