“It was a phenomenal WAC Championships, winning more events this past weekend then we have in the past decade,” Air Force coach Rob Clayton<\/strong> said. “At the Air Force Academy we talk about resiliency, and we talk about flexibility, and it was a weekend where there were a lot of things thrown our way, but the guys showed up and were just undeterred when the situation changed and they adapted and dominated the meet.”<\/p>\n

On the final day there were seven more events contested, and AF continued to assert its dominance, winning three more. Overall on the weekend, the Falcons won 11 of the 21 events. Air Force also set nine school records, while also putting 30 new times in the all-time Academy top-10.<\/p>\n

Moving on to the 200 breast, senior Zach Nelson<\/strong> took his third gold medal of the weekend after blowing away the competition with a new school record time of 1:54.83. Right behind him in second place was freshman Tory Bartlett who clocked in with a 1:57.19 to set the fifth-fastest time in AF history.<\/p>\n

The final individual school record that was broken came in the 200 fly, as Limpert swam to a second place finish with a time of 1:44.47. Also in the top-10 were sophomore Aaron Pang<\/strong>, who took fifth, and sophomore Logan Davis<\/strong>, who placed seventh. Davis\u2019 time of 1:48.24 was the tenth-fastest in program history.<\/p>\n

In the final swimming event of the Championships, the 400 free relay, the Falcons but a bow on the dominating weekend, as the squad of Lattin, Gwin, Zhang, and Shepard, placed first with a new school record time of 2:53.83.<\/p>\n

Finally, in the diving well, the platform dive was contested on the final day. Junior Cole Armagost<\/strong> continued his solid weekend with a second place finish. In the prelim round, Armagost was the highest point scorer with a 321.30.<\/p>\n

“I am so proud of the efforts of our entire team,” NAU coach Andy Johns<\/dfn><\/strong> said. “Dealing with adversity of schedule changes and only timed finals, they were the best team the last two days, with the most energy and the best attitude on deck. A challenging year with lots of struggles, but this team showed the heart of a champion the last two days and won a well-deserved title.”<\/p>\n

During the last four days, the Lumberjacks earned six individual gold medals, with two swimmers having two first-place finishes: Elisa Rodriguez<\/strong> and Lainie Bell<\/strong>. <\/dfn><\/p>\n
