BYU Men Win Home Opener Over Utah
PROVO -- The beginning of the 2002-03 swimming and diving season was a success for the three-time Mountain West Conference champion Cougars. In a dual meet competition at BYU on Friday night, the BYU men defeated Utah by a score of 161.5 - 81.5.
Men's head coach Tim Powers said, "I thought our team swam really well. The score doesn't indicate how good Utah really is."
The BYU men's team won nine of the 13 events on their way to beating the Utes by 80 points. On the women's side, the Cougars pulled off four wins, but were defeated by the Utah women by a score of 135 -- 112. It was the first loss in school history to the Ute women.
"I thought the Utes really looked good," said BYU women's head coach Stan Crump. "I thought we looked good too considering the full workout we had this week."
Sophomore Nichole Burrows won the 50 free with a time of 24.57, and team captain Amanda Grant won the 200 breast by nearly three seconds, swimming an impressive 2:21.74.
After falling behind early the Cougar men came back with a 1-2-3 win in the 1000 free by freshmen Zach Anderson, Travis Prince and John Ferrell. Powers said, "We fell behind after the first relay but we came back in the 1000 and never looked back."
Other key performers included senior Jeff Mason, who won both the 100 and 200 free events and anchored the 400 free winning relay team, senior divers Aaron Russell and Kelli Einfeldt each won the 1-M and 3-M diving events.
