ATHENS, Ga. -- With another individual win for junior Geoffrey Peitz, sophomore Drew Onken and junior Curtis Chaney and another NCAA B-cut, CCSA and school-record winning time in the 400 freestyle relay, the Davidson men's swimming and diving team won their second straight CCSA Championship as competition concluded Saturday night at the Gabrielson Natatorium on the campus of the University of Georgia.
Peitz won the 200 back for his third individual championship of the meet, in a CCSA and school-record, NCAA B-cut time of 1:45.67, and was named CCSA Men's Most Outstanding Swimmer of the Meet. His dominant performance included three individual titles — the 200 IM, 100 back and 200 back, all in school and CCSA record, NCAA B-cut times, while swimming on three winning relays — the 200 and 400 freestyle and the 400 medley relay, also all school and CCSA record, NCAA B-cut times.
Chaney won a second title with a win in the 100 free, and Onken — who was named co-Men's Swimmer of the Year for winning four CCSA weekly honors, won his third championship with a win in the 200 breast. Peitz, Chaney, sophomore Wills Cooper and senior Bryan Droll finished off the meet with a school and CCSA-record NCAA B-cut time of 3:00.61. Davidson head coach John Young repeated as Men's Coach of the Year, leading the Wildcats to a second straight championship.

She rebroke the record with a leadoff leg of 48.95 in the Wildcats' winning 400 freestyle relay, en route to earning her second consecutive Women's Most Outstanding Swimmer of the Meet and Most Outstanding Swimmer of the Year awards.
