The 400 medley relay team of Ryan Taylor, Jack Sauve, Dan Alley and Okorn won with a time of 3:40.43. The 500 freestyle crescendo relay team of Johnson Knox, Okorn, Bryan Andrews and Brian McGuiness won with a time of 4:19.30.

Senior co-captain Jim Okorn will try to lead the Bears to a fourth straight NEWMAC championship.

After graduating two classes in 2007 and 2008 which had a combined eight NCAA championship swimmers, and three straight NEWMAC championships, the Bears, who had their highest finish at the NCAA’s in 13 years last season, hopefully will continue the pattern for success again this season.

The Bears will be led by captains Jim Okorn and Chris Woods, both of whom were conference championship finalists and served to bolster a strong sprint group. Okorn was a multiple event qualifier for NCAA competition for the second year in a row, and swam on relays at the national meet. Woods is a butterfly and sprint freestyle specialist who had his strongest year last season, with lifetime best swims in all his races.
