PRINCETON, N.J. – The Dartmouth College men's swimming and diving team opened up their 24-25 season in Princeton, N.J. today.

"I think our men surprised Brown in the first half of the meet which was great to see. The team stepped up and senior captain Alex Ye led the way with a very strong Ivy opening meet. I'm excited to see who else in the league this team will surprise during the rest of the season!" said Head Coach Milana Socha.

The 200 medley relay of Colton Rasmussen, Eddy Chen, Alexander Ye and Logan Pack swam a time of 1:30.57. This time put the relay ninth on Dartmouth's All-Time Top 10 list. Pack recorded a lifetime best for his first ever 19 second split.

The 1000 free swept Brown going 1-2-3 with Tommy Erwin leading the charge and Xavier Orlic and Ronan Fahey rounding out the sweep.

Rasmussen and Jagger Stachtiaris went 1-2 over Brown with times of 49.62 and 50.37.

In the 200 fly, Jacob Turner had a time of 1:49.18, Yan Dvoretskiy swam a 1:50.46 and Andy Peterson swam a 1:52.74 to go 1-2-3 versus Brown. Turner swam a lifetime best and his time landed him sixth in Dartmouth's best times in the 200 fly.
