BANGOR, Me. – Six Eastern Connecticut State University men's swimmers combined to win three individual events and place second in nine  when the Warriors dropped a 172-110 dual-meet decision to Husson University Saturday afternoon at Webber Pool. Twenty-two of Husson's points came in two diving events (Eastern does not sponsor diving).
 
Junior Connor Scully (Oxford), sophomore Connor Rego (Winsted) and first-year swimmer Sam Hurlburt (Meriden) all captured individual events for Eastern (1-2), with the 400 freestyle relay of junior Nathan Melia (Manchester), Scully and sophomores Joseph Sylvester (Morris) and Ben D'Addario (Fairfield) combining to win the 400 freestyle in the second-fastest time (3:31.97) in program history.
 
Scully won the 200 breaststroke (2:25.98), Rego the 200 butterfly (2:05.92) and Hurlburt the 100 breaststroke (1:05.91), while Melia broke his own program record in a third-place finish in the 200 backstroke in a time of 2:11.90. Rego also took two seconds, with his time of 1:00.97 in the 100 individual medley .01 seconds off his own program record. D'Addario captured three second-place finishes, with Hurlburt, Scully, Melia and Sylvester each placing second once, as did the 200 medley relay team of Sylvester, Hurlburt, Rego and Melia.
 
Rego led the Warriors by amassing 17 points in his three individual events, Hurlburt 16 with his first, second and third-place finishes, Scully 15 with a first, second and fourth, and D'Addario with 12 with his three seconds.
