I have said for a long time that at one point, Braden Holloway will be either an assistant or the head coach for the U. S. Olympic team. He is that good and has a great staff!

First meet at the cheaters Friday





The NC State men's and women's swimming and diving programs will kick off their 2020-21 campaigns this weekend as they make the short trip to visit rival North Carolina. The two-day dual meet will take place inside the Koury Natatorium in Chapel Hill.

The Wolfpack women are set to take on the Tar Heels on Friday, with diving starting at 4:30 p.m. and swimming beginning at 6 p.m. The next day (Saturday, Nov. 7), the Pack men will take their turn with diving at 9:30 a.m. and swimming at 11 a.m.

Due to health and safety recommendations and current state guidelines, this event is closed to the public.

Additional meets on the Wolfpack's schedule will be announced at a later date.

20-21 NATIONAL TEAM:
A total of seven current and former NC State swimmers are featured on the USA Swimming National Team roster for the current season. Current Wolfpack student-athletes Katharine Berkoff and Eric Knowles earned spots on the team, as did NC State alumni Elise Haan, Ryan Held, Hannah Moore, Justin Ress and Makayla Sargent. All seven selections were members of the 2019-20 U.S. National Team and retained their spots with the pandemic shortening the season.

The sixth-ranked NC State women's swimming and diving team opened 2020-21 action by cruising to the 224-167 victory over the No. 18 North Carolina Tar Heels on Friday evening.

The Pack swam the fastest time in every single swimming event that was contested and picked up 1-2-3 finishes in a pair of races. Kate Moore led the way with three individual victories apiece as a total of six Wolfpack women won multiple events on the night and three posted NCAA B cut times.

Friday night marked the first collegiate action in the pool for both teams since the 2020 ACC Championship meet, and the squads swam an adjusted slate of events to get back in the swing of things.

Berkoff (24.47), Anna Shumate (28.39), Sirena Rowe (23.44) and Alons (21.98) opened with a solid 200-yard medley relay performance, taking the win with a time of 1:38.28 that currently ranks second nationally. The Pack also closed out the meet with the 200-yard freestyle relay win.

NC State's two sweeps came in the 600-yard freestyle, led by a first-place finish from Kate Moore (5:50.33), and the 100-yard freestyle, where Emma Muzzy touched first (56.34).

Moore then went on to win the 400-yard freestyle (3:51.74) and the 200-yard freestyle (1:50.18) to round out her day.

Berkoff (100-yard backstroke, 52.68), Alons (100-yard freestyle, 49.40) and Julia Poole (200-yard individual medley) were the three members of the squad to secure NCAA B times on the night.

Heather Maccausland won both the 50-yard (28.81) and 100-yard (1:02.33) breaststroke races, and freshman Abby Arens (50 butterfly, 100 butterfly) also picked up a pair of top finishes in her Wolfpack debut, with her 100 butterfly time (54.15) cracking the NC State top 10.

Divers Katelyn Cook and Mary O'Neill also opened their seasons with competition on both one-meter and three-meter.

NC State's fourth-ranked men's swimming and diving squad wrapped up a perfect opening weekend as it defeated No. 24 North Carolina by a 212.5-201.5 score on Saturday.

In total, the Pack men posted the fastest time in 10 swimming events, including all three individual medley races that were contested. Sophomore Hunter Tapp led the way with individual victories in three events, with John Healy, Eric Knowles and Michael Moore also completing multi-win outings.

Saturday marked the first collegiate action in the pool for both teams since the 2020 ACC Championship meet, and the squads swam an adjusted slate of events to get back in the swing of things.

Sprint freestyler Tapp put on a show as he touched first in the 50-yard (20.51), 100-yard (44.16) and 150-yard (1:10.85) events. Healy put together a pair of wins of his own in the 100-yard (49.50) and 150-yard (1:18.13) backstroke races.

The Pack's IM crew continued to show off its strength as it posted the top three times in the 200-yard race. Moore led the way in 1:50.51, followed by Knowles (1:50.73), Conall Monahan (1:51.58) and Zachary Cram (1:53.12). Knowles and Moore also tied for first in the 100-yard individual medley with times of 51.51, and Knowles added a victory in the 300-yard race as well (2:52.79).

Ross Dant (600-yard freestyle, 5:22.33) and Zach Brown (150-yard butterfly, 1:16.51) also earned top finishes on the day.

Wolfpack divers Patrick O'Brien and Matt Sexton opened their seasons, with O'Brien earning a third-place finish on three-meter (326.10).

NC State's divers opened the 2021 calendar year with action at the Georgia Diving Invitational Sunday through Tuesday. The squad competed on the one-meter and three-meter springboards over the course of the meet and also saw its first action on platform this season.

Bayne Bennett returns to Raleigh with a pair of Zones cuts, as he posted a score of 347.95 on three-meter and 310.55 on one-meter. He tallied both of those scores in the finals, placing second and third, respectively, in those events.

Freshmen Mary O'Neill, Clara Tate and Matt Sexton all made their platform debuts as members of the Pack. Sophomore Patrick O'Brien competed in all three events with a season-best score on one-meter, and Katelyn Cook added her highest score of the season in that event as well.

"Considering this our first big meet of the year, I think the divers did well," said Yahya Radman. "It was an opportunity to see where their training has gotten them. After the second day, a fire was lit underneath them, and they are coming back with a hunger to improve and add some new things as we lead into the second half of the season. I'm very happy to see that three of our divers made it into the Bulldog Shootout, and we lasted into the second and third rounds, with Mary O'Neill, Bayne Bennett and Patrick O'Brien. It was also a lot of fun to watch some of our freshmen shine and really put their mark on this team. The future is very bright for NC State and this diving program as we continue to progress toward NCAAs and the excitement of March."
