Looking to start the season strong the John Carroll University men's swimming and diving team faced a tough opponent in Ohio Northern who enters the season in quest of a 10-straight OAC crown. Ohio Northern coasted to a 203-68 win in the season-opener.

Two freshmen led the way for John Carroll in Ben Parker and Gabe Nock.

Parker swam well in his collegiate debut. The freshman captured the 400-IM with a time of 4:25.27. Parker added a third place showing in his first collegiate race, the 1,000-free, checking in at 10:33.81. He picked up a fourth place finish in the 200-back as well for JCU.

Nock posted a runner-up mark in the 50-free at 22.28. The freshman teamed with Nick Holvey, Gabe Nock, John Scantling and David Sved to claim runner-up honors in the final race of the day, the 200-free relay.

The relay of Zach Morris, Michael Goggins, Holvey and Sved kicked off the men's side of the Mark Fino era clocking in at 1:43.30 to take third in the 200-medley relay.

Sved and Scantling gave the Blue Streaks two point scorers in the 200-free finishing in third and fourth place respectively.

Goggins added a third place mark in the 100-breast touching at 1:04.20. He would go on to add a fourth place finish later in the meet during the 200-breast. Holvey would add a third place finish in the 100-free.

Doug Hinchen was the only competitor in the 1-meter diving event leading to the freshmen picking up nine points towards the team score.

The men's swimming and diving team will be back in action with a 1 p.m. meet at Case Western Reserve on Saturday, Nov. 2.
