Men’s Swimming Earns First Win of Season

11/22/2025 10:33:00 PM

ANNVILLE, Pa. – The Lebanon Valley men's swimming team earned the program's first dual victory of the year on Saturday afternoon as the Dutchmen defeated visiting FDU-Florham 76-71 inside the Arnold Sports Center. The women's team dropped a 151-44 decision to the Devils in the final meet of the semester.
 
The meet, which was also LVC's last home dual of the season, was a closely contested affair on the men's side that was not decided until the final relay, where the Dutchmen had two teams competing while the Devils did not field a team. LVC finished the first semester with a 1-3 mark, including a 1-1 record against Middle Atlantic Conference teams. The women's squad is also 1-3 with a 1-1 mark against conference competition. The Dutchmen will host an intrasquad meet in the second semester where they will honor the team's seniors.
