Lions Set Relay Mark in Win Over Widener

Results

The Albright College men's swimming team set a relay pool record, as part of a 111-89 defeat of Widener on Saturday.

Ralph Porrazzo, Matt Runtas, Mike McBride and Alex Bauer swam 1:26.68 to set a new Albright Natatorium mark in the 200 free relay.

After losing the opening 200 medley relay, the Lions swept the 1000 free, with Rick Sutton (10:20.58), Matthew Rein (10:25.07) and Rainer Floeter (10:47.55).

Albright continued to win freestyle events, with McBride (1:49.43) taking the 200 and Porrazzo (21.86) beating out Runtas at 50 yards.

In the 500 freestyle later on in the meet, Sutton (4:58.84) and Rein (5:03.58) went 1-2.

Runtas took first in the 100 fly (55.32), ahead of teammate Mitch Cain (56.50). Porrazzo took the 100 back with a time of 53.43.

The Lions improve to 3-0, overall and against MAC competition, and will host Ursinus on Wednesday.
