Last Time at the Event: New Paltz secured a 169-92 win over Vassar the last time the two teams met in a dual meet format on November 22, 2014. Despite the team's overall loss, now sophomore, Jonah Strand (Woodstock, NY / Onteora Central) posted three wins for the Brewers in the 200 Yard Breaststroke, 100 Yard Breaststroke, and 400 Individual Medley events.

Meet Format: Vassar will compete head-to-head against the Hawks in 16 events, including a handful the Brewers have not swam this year. This will be the first time the Brewers swim the 400 individual medley, 200 yard butterfly, 200 yard breaststroke and 200 yard backstroke. 
 
A Look at the Hawks (0-0): New Paltz posted 4-3 record in dual meets last year in the 2014-15 season. The Hawks clinched a fourth place finish in the SUNYAC at last season's Championship event last February. The Hawks so far this year have only seen pool time at the Union Relays, where they placed third of five teams.
