In his first event as a collegiate swimmer, freshman Abel Dupres not only took first place but set a new school record in the 1,000-yard freestyle with a time of 11:19.08 in the Lightning’s 93-69 win over College of Mount St. Vincent. The Bronx native also finished first in the 100-yard freestyle with a time of 49.10 in the same meet. Just two days later, Dupres continued his winning ways, claiming first in both the 200-yard Individual Medley (2:06.42) and the 100-yard Backstroke (55.97) but came up short, finishing second, in the 100-yard Breaststroke (1:05.44), just .34 of a second behind the first place finisher from William Paterson. The Lighting squad is set to travel to Purchase, NY to face SUNY Purchase in their next meet on November 18th.
