This week’s Division III Performance of the Week is Johns Hopkins University’s Andy Greenhalgh in the 1,000 freestyle against Division I Georgetown and William & Mary. His time of 9:27.65 was enough to win the event and give him the top time in the country so far this season. His swim would have put him at the top of last year’s rankings as well, as the fastest time posted in 2015-2016 belonged to Joshua Graves of MIT in 9:30.14. Last season, Greenhalgh’s fastest 1,000 was 9:36.23 against The College of New Jersey. While the swim was still off his best of 9:17.99 from January of 2015, the is an incredibly dominant swim for the second weekend of October. Greenhalgh also won the 500 freestyle in 4:34.91, just half a second off the NCAA B standard. His efforts helped send JHU past Georgetown in the overall scores 180-82.
Fresh off his Division III victory at the CSCAA Open Water National Championships, Albion freshman Mac Robertson kept his win streak alive after winning the 1,000 freestyle on Saturday by just a narrow margin. Wabash sophomore Chris Dabrowski gave the freshman a run for his money as the two finished the race with times of 10:23.09 and 10:23.29, respectively. Dabrowski led the race early on and had the upper hand at the 500, 5:08.26 to Robertson’s 5:08.82. But Robertson’s endurance proved strong again as he was able to get his hand on the wall first in the end as he out-split Dabrowski 27.06 to 28.26 on the last 50. The pair also took the top two spots in the 500 freestyle. Robertson claimed the shorter event as well in 5:02.58. His efforts helped Albion win the meet 213-87. Be sure to look for this duo for the rest of the season and the following two years.
