POUGHKEEPSIE, NY (January 12, 2014) – The Vassar men's' swimming and diving program will compete for the first time in over a month on Tuesday when the Brewers host Trinity College in a dual-meet at Kresge Pool starting at 1:00 pm.

What to Look For:
Vassar (2-3) is back in action this week for the first time since the Liberty League Championships over a month ago. The Brewers will swim against the Bantams in search of their third dual meet victory of the season.

Last Time Out:
The Vassar men's swimming team captured a sixth place finish at the Liberty League Championships on December 7, finishing with a team score of 484 points. The Brewers had several standout performances, improving one spot from their finish at the event a year ago. The University of Rochester won its sixth conference title on the weekend, finishing with a team score of 1926 points. RPI finished in second with 1751, while RIT took the third spot with 907.5. 

Thanks Seniors!:
The Vassar College swimming & diving program will honor seniors Luc Amodio, Chuck Herrmann, Rafael Ricaurte and Marcos Vargas as the four compete in their second-to-last home on Tuesday. The quartet has been a part of some of the most successful teams in VC history, and has seen 12 new records set since starting their careers in Poughkeepsie. 

A Look at the Bantams:
Trinity is fresh off a dual meet against Wheaton on January 10, where the Bantams fell to the visiting Lyons 183-89. The Bantams sport a fairly balanced roster, nearly split between upperclassmen and underclassmen. Trinity will be looking for its first dual meet victory of the season against the Brewers, as the Bantams enter Kresge Pool 0-5 on the year.

The Pacific Life:
The Vassar Swimming and diving programs traveled out to Coronado, California for a week-long training trip this past week, and have returned to Poughkeepsie to tackle the second leg of the season. The team competed in a non-scoring meet against Wisconsin-Eau Claire on January 9 and check out @VassarSwimDive on Twitter for behind the scenes photos and clips from the trip.

Next Up:
The Vassar men's swimming team will swim the final meet at Kresge Pool this season on Wednesday, January 21. The Brewers will host Montclair State at 6:00 pm to wrap up the 2014-15 home slate.
