LEWISBURG, Pa. – The Bucknell men's swimming & diving team dispatched Loyola, 170-119, to kick off 2019 on Friday afternoon at Kinney Natatorium.

The Bison (3-3, 3-2 Patriot League) used 11 first-place finishes to down the Greyhounds (4-2, 2-2 Patriot League). Chadd Cummings (100 breaststroke, 200 breaststroke), Matt McGoey (200 freestyle, 200 backstroke) and Garrett Sommer (1-meter dive, 3-meter dive) each took first in two events to lead the way.

Bucknell's other individual champions were Mitch Gavars (1,000 freestyle), Charlie McFarland (50 freestyle), Liam Pitt (100 freestyle) and Jack Rose (100 backstroke). Rose, Cummings, Pitt and McFarland also teamed for a first-place finish in the 200 medley relay.

Rogers added second-place showings in the 100 freestyle and 200 freestyle while Pitt was third in the 50 freestyle and 100 butterfly. McFarland was also third in the 100 freestyle.

Will Cadwallader finished just behind Sommer on both boards. He improved his score in the 3-meter dive to 239.33, good for 10th in the Bison annals.
