Small Ball Report-March 4

SCIAC Conference

Sophomore swimmer Tyler Harp of Redlands was named SCIAC Male Athlete of the Week yesterday.  Harp won the SCIAC Men's Athlete of the Year for swimming and diving for the second time in as many years following the 2010 SCIAC Swimming and Diving Championships, which occured from Sunday, February 21, through Tuesday, February 23.  He took home the conference title in three individual events and participated on four first-place relays.  Harp acheived an NCAA "A" cut in the 200 freestyle (1:39.32) and clocked NCAA "B" standards in the 50 freestyle (20.77) and the 100 freestyle (45.30).  He also competed on four of Redlands' first-place relays (200 freestyle relay, 1:23.49; 200 medley relay, 1:33.21; 800 freestyle relay, 6:46.10; and 400 freestyle relay, 3:03.78), all of which gained NCAA "B" qualification.  Harp lowered the program and SCIAC overall standard in the 200 freestyle, while his 200 medley relay and 800 freestyle relay teams also set program and SCIAC overall marks.

Freshman swimmer Allie Bollella of Redlands was named SCIAC Female Athlete of the Week yesterday.  Bollella earned the SCIAC Women's Athlete of the Year Award after winning three individual events and competing on four relays that placed among the top two at the 2010 SCIAC Swimming and Diving Championships.  Bollella clocked an NCAA "A" qualifying time in the 200 freestyle (1:52.33) and registered NCAA "B" marks in the 50 freestyle (23.70, preliminaries) and the 100 freestyle (51.79).  She contributed her skills to four Bulldog relays (200 freestyle relay, second place, 1:36.69; 200 medley relay, second place, 1:50.10; 800 freestyle relay, first place, 7:42.42; and 400 freestyle relay, second place, 3:30.70), three of which met NCAA "B" qualification.  In addition, she set three individual program records and three relay program records while lowering the SCIAC meet standards in the 50 freestyle, the 100 freestyle, the 200 freestyle and the 800 freestyle relay.  Also, her 50 freestyle and 100 freestyle performances eclipsed the former SCIAC standards in those respective events.

Small Ball Report-February 4

SCIAC Conference

Austin Hallett of the Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Men's Swimming was named SCIAC Male Athlete of the Week yesterday. 

The Athletes of the Week that I posted yesterday were from January 27.  Don't blame me for being late.  It was the SCIAC who didn't update their website for the past few days.

Moving on, the Sophomore Hallett won three events in impressive fashion as CMS won at Cal Lutheran 151 to 65.  Once again, I have no idea how the scoring works.  Hallett won the 400 individual medley by 5.91 seconds with a time of 4:23.21.  He won the 100 back by 1.45 seconds in 54.39 and led off the winning 200 free relay with a split of 22.52.  The relay team won by 1.26 seconds in 1:28.14.  CMS is 6-0 in SCIAC.
