BERKELEY, California. October 9. THE Cal men's swimming and diving team opened the 2009-10 campaign with a 156-139 dual meet victory over Hawaii at Spieker Aquatics Complex. The Golden Bears won eight of the meet's 16 events and had seven different individual winners, including freshman Tom Shields in the 200 free (1:40.46) and freshman Andre Blyth in the 200 fly (1:48.60). Cal also captured the 200 medley relay (1:30.38, Mathias Gydesen, Damir Dugonjic, Shields, Graeme Moore).
Other individual winners for the Bears were junior Guy Barnea in the 100 back (49.63), junior Graeme Moore in the 50 free (20.34) and sophomore Martin Liivamagi in the 200 IM (1:51.53).
