Head Coach Jay Holmes said:
“It’s a step in the right direction because we improved from last year’s team finish. But there’s no doubt we expected to do better. It’s been a great season, the best dual meet season we’ve had in a long time and we took a huge step at conference. We came here with higher expectations and this team had the ability to have done better.
“We’re going to miss this senior class – especially Brock Bonetti, Mauro Castillo and Tyler Henschel. It seems like those guys have been breaking school records since they stepped on campus. They’ve been the foundation of what we’ve been able to build, and I’m extremely proud of what they accomplished.”
Aggie trio shines in the 200 breaststroke:
The Aggies racked up 17 points with three swimmers in the consolation final of the 200 breaststroke. Senior Mauro Castillo won the consolation final (9th overall) while lowering his own school record to 1:52.00. Sophomore Ben Walker placed 12th in 1:54.36, and senior Jonathan Tybur took 14th in 1:55.29. It marked the first time in school history that the Aggies had three swimmers in the finals of a single event.
First-team All-America honors for Henschel:
Senior Tyler Henschel earned first-team All-America honors in the platform dive for the second straight year with a sixth-place finish with a score of 403.65.
