Scouting the Opponents:

The Oneonta Red Dragons began with a pair of losses to SUNYAC rival Oswego last week.  Results can be found here: http://www.oneonta.edu/academics/athletics/archives/swimming/0910/oswego09.htm

Coast Guard travels to NY to face against New Paltz for the 2^nd straight week.  Last week, Coast Guard swept the Union Relay meet, scoring 120 points on the women’s side and 164 points on the mens side.

Last Week:

The Hawk women finished 3^rd of 4 teams and the men finished 4^th of 4 at the Union Relay Invitational.  The Hawk women claimed three relay victories, in the 300 Back Relay (Suzuka, Morris, Lester), 300 Fly Relay (Suzuka, Genovese, Wells) and 500 Crescendo Relay (Lown, Wells, Morris, Lester).  Diving played a big part in the finish as New Paltz men would have finished 2^nd if we had a program.  Results can be found here:  http://www.unionathletics.com/documents/2009/10/31/Union%20Relay%20Results%202009.htm?id=602
