FROM THE POOL

• "We saw real glimmers of greatness from our men today.  Every time we step up on the blocks, we learn more about what we need to do to contend at the highest level.  PETER JARZAB continues to lead the pack, dominating in the butterfly events.  Our depth is coming together well.  Tiagao Granados is swimming well in the breaststroke, and LUCAS OLSEN and ADAM SCHREINER are putting up great performances in backstroke.  More will come as the season progresses, and I'm excited to see it all come together when we peak for the NJAC Championships in February."
