SALISBURY, MARYLAND — Thirteenth-ranked Salisbury beat 14th-ranked TCNJ 144-118 in men's swimming Saturday afternoon at Maggs Pool, the Sea Gulls' first dual-meet win over the Lions, the university said.
Salisbury had lost all three previous duals with TCNJ since joining the New Jersey Athletic Conference in 2023-24, by margins that shrank each time. The university called Saturday's meet the highest-ranked ever held at Maggs Pool.
The 400 free relay clinched it. Shane Hall, Nick Stratton, Cameron Byrd and Owen Brewer won in 3:28.25, with Brewer touching seven hundredths of a second ahead of TCNJ's anchor. Byrd collected four gold medals, winning the 100 and 200 butterfly, and Owen Mahoney won the 400 and 800 free. Salisbury collected 26 medals, seven of them gold.
The Sea Gulls are idle next weekend, then go for a third straight Yellow Jacket Invitational title at the Hampton Aquaplex in Virginia starting Nov. 20.
Fourth try, first win.
