SPRINGFIELD, OH – The Wilmington College  men's swimming team got six wins Saturday with a member of the Spraul family having a hand in five of them as the Quakers split a double dual by falling to Wittenberg and beating Transylvania.

Wilmington lost to the Tigers, 165-115, and upended the Pioneers, 159-103.

"The men's team swam really well today across the board," said WC head coach Trip Breen. "We have a pretty tight group that are swimming for each other. They are training hard with a team-first attitude."

Senior Mikey Spraul (Cincinnati, OH/Princeton) had a hand in three victories, claiming the 200 backstroke (1:58.89) and the 100 backstroke (54.64), and then swam the anchor leg on the victorious 200 freestyle relay team. He was joined by Alex Fout (Westerville, OH/Westerville), David Hawk (Edison, OH/Mount Gilead) and David Spraul (Cincinnati, OH/Princeton) in covering the distance in 1:30.60.

David Spraul added a win in the 500 freestyle and Erik Spraul (Cincinnati, OH/Princeton) won the 100 freestyle. Erik Spraul missed winning the 200 individual medley by 0.01 seconds.

Mason Harris added a victory in the 1,000 freestyle.

Breen added freshman Jason Prible turned in great wins in the 50 and 100 freestyles.

Wilmington returns to the pool November 23 and 24 at the Ohio Wesleyan Invitational.
