ELIZABETHTOWN, PA -- The Washington College men's swim team dropped a non-conference dual meet to host Elizabethtown tonight, 90-84. The Shoremen drop to 3-4 on the season with the loss.

Four different Shoremen each won one event.

Senior Ryan Behles (Towson, MD/Calvert Hall) claimed first place in the 1000 freestyle as the race's only entrant, finishing in 11:14.97.

Behles, Evans, and Jensen each added a second-place finish as well. Behles completed the 500 freestyle in 5:32.38, Evans touched the wall at 2:05.93 in the 200 individual medley, and Jensen finished the 100 butterfly in 59.65.
