Bulls Conclude Home Season

The men's swim team dropped a pair of Mid-American Conference dual meets Saturday afternoon concluding their home season. UB fell to Northern Illinois 164-75 and Toledo by a 172-67 score. Toledo also scored a 124-119 decision over Northern Illinois. With the losses the Bulls fall to 2-6 overall and 0-5 in MAC action.

In their final home meet, seniors Eric Stimson (North Tonawanda, NY) and Josh Pun (Edmonton, Alberta) were the Bulls' lone winners on the day. Stimson won the 200 backstroke in 1:51.81 while Pun took the 200 butterfly in a season-best 1:54.94, shaving almost a full second off his previous best.

Stimson and senior Jason McLachlan (Arvada, CO) placed second and third in the 400 individual medley in 4:06.46 and 4:06.78 respectively. Northern Illinois' Mick Coyne took the race in 4:04.35. Stimson's showing in the race was also his best mark of the season in the event. McLachlan also turned in a 2:20.05 showing in the 200 breast racing as an exhibition entry for the Bulls in the event.

The senior class of McLachlan, Stimson, Pun and Dexter Tatum (Gainesville, GA) also combined for a fourth-place finish in the 400 free relay in 3:32.75.

Freshman Alan Lowe (Brownsville, TX) placed fifth in the 1000 freestyle (10:01.20) and seventh in the 500 freestyle (4:57.30). Both events were won by Toledo's Vuk Danilovic.

Mike Lampo (Frewsburg, NY) was the Bulls' top diver at the meet. Lampo finished sixth in the 3-meter competition with 214.40 points and placed seventh on the 1-meter board with 179.15 points.
