...Crimson looked very strong in the 100-yd. backstroke, placing three men in the top six. Steady freshman standout Geoff Seelen qualified for NCAAs as he landed third place with a time of 52.71.

He also snared butterfliers Dan Menichella and Campari Knoeffler and backstroke Geoff Seelen, all high-school All-Americans who have consistently gone under two minutes as the top performers in their respective events this years. Add to that crew sprinter Julian Mack and distance-man Michael Coglin, who have emerged while still in the infant stages of their college careers as two of the East's finest freestylers, and you see that Orschiedt has created...
