CINCINNATI -- The Xavier men's swim team defeated rival Cincinnati 137.5 -127.5 in the annual Crosstown Splashdown at UC's Keating Aquatics Center. The XU women moved to an even 1-1 on the season as the Bearcats edged the Musketeers 182-87.
The XU men got off to a good start as David Maxwell, San Conchuratt, Michael Zennedjian, and Terrence Mahon earned first place in the men's 4x50 relay with a time of 1:35.34.
Jared Ness captured first place in the men's 100 yard backstroke with a time of 53.75. Landon Graham also had a good showing at UC with a first place finish in the 200 yard butterfly.
