The men’s ACC championships kicked off Wednesday afternoon in Greensboro, N.C., with teams from Louisville and NC State each coming away with an early relay win.
Diving was contested last week with women’s ACC championships, but scores will be added in as they normally would fall in the program. Including the results of 3-meter diving only, NC State leads the competition with 158 points, followed by Florida State (157) and Duke (147).
The meet opened with the 4×50 medley relay, and even though Louisville trailed through the first three legs of the race, Andrej Barna pulled out a blistering 18.54 anchor leg to put his team in front. The team of Nicolas Albiero (20.95), Carlos Claverie (23.55), Zach Harting (20.37) and Barna posted a time of 1:23.41.
NC State’s team of Coleman Stewart, Jacob Molacek, Giovanni Izzo and Cobe Garcia finished second in 1:23.93. The Wolfpack rested the team’s two best sprinters, Ryan Held and Justin Ress, leaving them available for all other relay action.
Virginia’s foursome of Joe Clark, Keefer Barnum, Bryce Keblish and Luke Kerogiadis took third in 1:24.69.
Florida State finished in 1:24.95, just missing the NCAA A-cut of 1:24.95, and other teams finishing in the top eight included Notre Dame (1:25.37), North Carolna (1:25.92), Duke (1:25.99) and Virginia Tech (1:26.03).
