GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – It was a busy Friday night for Parker Belmore, Derek Bosko and Sebastian Tostado as Albion College swimmers competed in the first session of a quad meet at Calvin College.

All three Britons swam in both relays contested. They were joined by Nick Deppner for the 200 free for a runner-up finish in the 200 free. The Britons' time of 1:27.57 was just a second off the pace set by Calvin. Landon Lefler joined the trio on the fourth-place 400 medley team that finished in 3:39.74.

Individually, Bosko sprinted to first place in the 50 free (21.65 seconds) and Tostado was touched out at the wall by .18 in the 200 IM (1:57.94).

Albion Coach Jake Taber said turns may have kept the swimmers from finishing higher.

"There are some technical things we need to fix tomorrow," Taber said. "Our turns didn't do us any favors.

"With that said, we created a good environment on the pool deck," he added. "It was a positive group and it showed." 

Blake Blair finished ninth in the 500 free (5:01.99).
