KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – The Georgia Tech men’s swimming team (1-5) dropped a dual meet to fifth-ranked Tennessee (6-0), 98-63 this afternoon. The Yellow Jackets won two of the day’s nine events in the 150-yard breaststroke relay and the 150-yard backstroke relay. The coaches of the two teams decided to make this a “fun” day and had a laid-back format with some different events than usual.

The Tech team of Mickey Malul, Jeremy Jackson and Andy Miller won the 150-yard breastroke relay in a time of 1:19.91. The Jackets also grabbed a win in the 150-yard backstroke relay as Matt Tang, Johnny Hagaman and Joe Way Lee touched the wall in 1:11.97.

One of the different events on the day included the 500-yard freestyle creshendo relay. The Tech team of Mauricio Sousa, Noah Copeland, Travis Wagner and Onur Uras finished second in 3:43.06. Miller also picked up a second-place finish in the 100-yard IM (56.38) while the team of Hagaman, Garrett Robberson, Lee and Copeland finished second (1:44.26) in the 200-yard freestyle underwater relay.

The Georgia Tech men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams will return to action on Saturday, Jan. 19, by hosting ACC foe Virginia Tech.
