The individual wins came courtesy of freshman Isaac Gwin in the 100 back, taking gold with a 49.99. Junior Cole McAnany placed second in that event with a 50.53. The other was from junior Zach Nelson in the 100 breast, timing in with a 56.37. Finishing right behind him were junior Andrew Weiss and sophomore Brendan Richichi.
The other two first place finishes came in the relays, as the Falcons took first in both the 200 medley relay (1:32.55) as well as the 200 free relay (1:24.22).
Air Force will be right back in action tomorrow afternoon, Jan. 12, when they head on campus to Seattle U to battle the Redhawks once again in dual action. Start time at Redhawk Center is set for 12 p.m. MT.
