Swim & Dive Sweeps Dual Meet At Duke – University of North Carolina Athletics
It was the largest margin of victory in the series for the UNC men since 2001, when they posted a 162-point win over the Blue Devils, 227-65. The 219 points were the most Carolina accumulated in the series since 2001.
The men’s team won 14 of 16 events on the men’s side, sweeping the 200 fly, 50 free, 100 free, and 200 breast.
“I’m really proud of our men’s team for taking control of the meet from the get-go,” UNC head coach Mark Gangloff said. “We put some people in different events, and they stepped up, and that’s exactly what I’ve asked them to be all semester – a team of great racers.
“We knew the women’s meet would be close and might come down to the last relay. We knew we had a team that could come here and beat them, but you have to execute, and they did that. I’m super proud of them.”
Greer Pattison, Delaney Carlton, Madeline Smith and Elizabeth Sowards teamed up in the final relay to give the UNC women their third straight win in the series.
The Tar Heels trailed by 0.50 seconds when Sowards hit the water for the anchor leg and after 50 yards, she had pulled in front by 0.67 seconds and touched just in front of Duke’s Sally Foley for the win.
“I’m not sure that quartet has ever been up in a relay, but they’ve all had a hot hand lately, and we let it ride. I’m extremely happy for Elizabeth. She’s such a hard worker and has been a great leader for our team.”
It was the UNC women’s second relay win of the meet after opening the competition with a victory in the 200-yard medley that included Pattison, Carlton, Skyler Smith, and Ellie VanNote.
Carlton and VanNote also recorded individual wins, with Carlton winning the 100 free and VanNote the 100 fly.
Sophomore Lily Reader finished over seven seconds ahead of the field to win the 1000 free. She missed sweeping the distance-free events by two-tenths of a second in the 500 free events to finish in second place.
Aranza Vazquez Montaño swept the diving events for the fifth time in six meets this season, posting a score of 349.95 on the one-meter springboard and 368.78 in the three-meter competition.
Freshman Ellie Joyce finished second in the one-meter event with a score of 307.95.
With victory assured, the men’s team closed the meet by taking the first two spots in the 400 free relay.
Freshmen Ben Delmar and Keith Williams each won a pair of events, with Delmar sweeping the breaststroke races and Williams coming home first in both distance-free events.
Delmar was dominant in his events, winning the 100 breast by 3.31 seconds and the 200 by 6.38 seconds, touching in a time of 1:56.90.
Williams finished nearly a full second ahead of teammate Jack Donovan to win the 500. He was more than a second faster than classmate Craig Bohlman in the 1000 free.
Louis Dramm (200 free), Walker Davis (100 back), Patrick Hussey (200 fly), Tyler Roberton (50 free), Matthew Van Deusen (100 Free), Colin Whelehan (200 back) and Boyd Polke (100 fly) were all victorious as well.
The UNC men finished the dual meet season with a 5-2 record, while the Carolina women registered a 4-2-1 mark.

After four years at Duke, Grayson Allen is back in North Carolina, now a member of the Charlotte Hornets.
Former Blue Devil Grayson Allen will play home games in North Carolina for the first time in his professional career after four years at Duke. According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Allen is on the move to the Charlotte Hornets after three seasons with the Phoenix Suns.
Allen was traded alongside Royce O’Neale and draft capital in return for Miles Bridges and draft picks. Allen was at Duke from 2014 to 2018, earning an NCAA championship and two All-ACC selections.
With Allen now a member of the Hornets, this will create a Duke trio in Charlotte, which includes Allen, Kon Knueppel and Sion James.
