HANOVER, N.H.— After Friday's strong start to the Tate Ramsden Invitational, the Dartmouth men's swimming and diving team sealed a convincing 240-94 win over UMass on Saturday at Karl Michael Pool in the Big Green's final home action of the 2023-24 season.

Friday's slate of events was highlighted by a meet record from the Big Green in the 200 free relay, and Dartmouth followed it up on Saturday with four more meet records. Logan Pack won the 100 back with a time of 49.50, the 200 medley relay team (Colton Rasmussen, Alexander Ye, Adam Ladman and William McClelland) took first at 1:32.10, Reed Wallace won the 200 back with a time of 1:48.09, and finally the 400 free relay squad (Pack, Ladman, Rasmussen and Isaac Weigel) raced to a victory at 3:03.42 to round out the Big Green's many meet records.

Andy Peterson notched a first-place finish in the 100 fly (50.22), and later won another event after swimming a 1:49.23 in the 200 fly. Ye followed with a 400 IM victory (4:00.45). Weigel, Rasmussen and Ladman went 1-2-3 in the 200 free, led by Weigel with a time of 1:38.81. Tommy Erwin contributed a win on Friday and had another to his credit on Saturday after finishing first in the 1650 free (16:07.20).

Each of the top five finishers in the 100 free were Big Green athletes, led by Rasmussen, who swam a 45.46. David Ji emerged victorious in the 200 breast with a time of 2:09.70.

Dartmouth has defeated UMass in each iteration of the Tate Ramsden Invitational, dating back to the 2017-18 season, when it was first named in honor of Tate Ramsden '17.

The Big Green also celebrated seniors Kyle Schubert, Grant Dator and Tim Park prior to the start of Saturday's action.

Ivy League competition returns on Saturday, Feb. 3 when the Big Green visit Columbia.
