Wesley Coles swam away with not only the largest improvement (over 17 seconds in his 1500 freestyle), but was the only swimmer who improved 100% of his times. Chris Nolan had the next highest improvement percentage at 67%. At a meet that hosted primarily college-level athletes, our highest place finish remained in the 30’s. Wesley Coles finished 30th in the 1500 freestyle (17:02.91) and 34th in the 200 meter fly (2:09.53), while Sam Hansen finished 36th in the 1500 freestyle (17:20.72) and 39th in the 800 free (9:01.24).
