II Champs: After Day 2, Truman State Women Lengthen Lead, Cal State Bakersfield Men Hang On"},"content":{"rendered":"

ORLANDO, Fla., March 14. TRUMAN State's Lady Bulldogs are in command after the conclusion of Day Two's competition at the NCAA Division II women's
\nChampionships here, maintaining a 61-point advantage over Drury.<\/p>\n

However, on the men's side Coach Bob Steele's Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners, double-defending champs, are ahead by a mere four-point margin
\n(279-275) over North Dakota's Fighting Sioux.<\/p>\n

Truman's ladies claimed a pair of victories while increasing their lead, which had been 37 after the first day's races (382-321). Bakersfield also scored a pair of victories but North Dakota was still able cut the CSUB lead from 19 points after Day One.<\/p>\n

After establishing three NCAA Division II Championship records during the opening day of competition, Truman State set only a single record today. However, the
\n'Dawgs shaved more than a second off Air Force's previous record in the 400 medley relay (3:49.99) with their 3:48.85.<\/p>\n

The single individual woman's standard went to West Chester's Corey Dennis, who defended her 100 fly title and splashed to a record-breaking 55.42 win tonight. The old record-holder and her time? None other than Furman's Angel Myers, with a 55.82 from 1986. Myers of course went on to become an Olympic gold medalist (relays) for the United States at both the Barcelona
\nand Atlanta Olympics.<\/p>\n

Last season Dennis, who's also defending 200 fly champ, won in 56.31. <\/p>\n

Other event winners included Drury University in the 200 freestyle relay (1:33.81-1:34.17 over Truman), North Dakota's Janice Berry in the 400 individual medley (4:22.72) and Diana Betsworth of Truman State in the 200 freestyle (1:49.04 after having swum a record-setting 1:48.75 in the prelims).<\/p>\n

* * * * *<\/p>\n

On the men's side, Bakersfield's Vlasta Burda and Jacob Fraire plus Ben Michaelson of Southern Connecticut State all claimed their second victory of
\nthe championships.<\/p>\n

Burda, who set a championship record in the 1000 freestyle last evening, showed he also can swim shorter distances as he won the 200 freestyle with a
\npr 1:38.55. Last season he was second (1:39+).<\/p>\n

After winning the 200 IM Wednesday, Fraire went out fast and held on to win the 400 IM with in a pr 3:56.90. Indianapolis' Orel Oral was hot on his heels (3:57.08). The latter was defending IM champ in both and won last year in 1:48.40-3:57.50.<\/p>\n

Michaelson saved the best for the last as, after winning the 50 free in a pr 20.11, he defended his 100 fly title with a stunning 46.74 record swim (21.95-24.79). That's a Division 1 qualifying time and knocked more than a second off his old record and pr 47.77 from the '01 Championship.<\/p>\n

No other DII swimmer had ever been under 48.0 before Michaelson came along and he's only a junior too. Watch out, Ian Crocker, you've got company!<\/p>\n

North Dakota freshman Fernando Alves was second in 47.31 (22.00-25.31), making him the second fastest man in Div. II history.<\/p>\n

Missouri-Rolla won the 200 freestyle relay while North Dakota claimed victory in the 400 medley.<\/p>\n

In the one-meter diving, Shawn Colten of Clarion University claimed top honors with a score of 453.10. Robb Pendergrass of California State-Bakersfield was second with a score of 419.85.<\/p>\n
