NCAA Div. I Men: Stanford Thumps the Wildcats -- January 26, 2002

STANFORD, CA., JAN. 25 -- Top-ranked and defending Pac-10 champ Stanford opened its conference season with a resounding thumping of Arizona here this afternoon at the Cardinal's Avery Aquatics Center.

Final score: 192-106.

Stanford won 12 of 16 events en route to victory, including every swimming event and both relays save the 50-100 frees, which were won by Roland Schoeman in fast times of 20.02-43.99; and the 1- and 3-meter boards, won by the Wildcats. Ruben Vaca and Omar Ojeda, respectively.

Stanford had several doublers, including Matt Sorlein's 1000 free and 400 IM wins (9:07.91-3:53.53); Markus Rogan, who triumphed in the 200-500 frees
(prs 1:37.01-4:25.34); Michael Bruce in the breaststrokes (54.83-1:58.00); and Peter Marshall in the backstrokes (47.27-1:45.11).

Bobby O'Bryan in the 100 fly (49.28) and Dan Westcott in the 200 fly (1:47.96) scored other pair of individual wins, with the 'Cats' Jeff Dash runner-up in both (a mere .01 behind in the 100). O'Bryan is defending Pac-10 champ in the 100 fly.

Westcott led off Stanford's winning 200 medley relay (22.20) that clocked 1:28.89, fifth-fastest nationally; and Jeff Guyman clocked 20.27 to lead off
the Card's 200 medley, that won in 1:20.27 -- sixth nationally.

Rogan, a sophomore who was an Austrian Olympian at Sydney, was runner-up last season to Texas' Nate Dusing in the NCAA 200 back -- 1:41.53-1:41.64. He's normally a dorsal specialist who was World Champion silver medalist in the 200 at Fukuoka last summer. His time from NCAAs ranks him 14th (performances) and ninth (performers) on the all-time list and is
fastest-ever for a 17-18 year-old.

However, his swim doesn't count as a United States Swimming National Age Group record as he is a non-American.

Teammate Randall Bal, World Champion in the 50 back, was runner-up in both backstrokes (47.58-1:46.24).

Stanford takes on Arizona State tomorrow at Avery.
