Queens (Charlotte) reigned supreme by the end of the evening at the NCAA Division II Championships.
Both the men’s and the women’s teams ended long reigns by Drury, which had won 10 straight men’s titles and five of the last six women’s championships.
The men’s team took home the title over Drury, 433.5-417.5, while Lindenwood snared third overall with 359 points. Wayne State (285) and Florida Southern (273.5) closed out the top five teams.
The Queens women had a bit of an easier time of it with a 540.5-489.5 victory against Drury. Wingate (320), Nova Southeastern (216) and Wayne State (211) rounded out the top five.
The top individual swim of the night definitely went to Nova Southeastern’s Anton Lobanov, who vaulted to eighth all time in the 200-yard breast.
Women’s 1650 free
Lindenwood’s Alecia McGillivray added the 1650 free title to her 1000 free win from night one at the NCAA D2 championships.
McGillivray won the 1650 by a wide margin with a 16:46.25 for the victory. She took charge at the 1300-yard mark and never looked back.
Bridgeport’s Annagrazia Bonsanti threw down a 16:50.11 in the earlier heats to take second overall, while West Chester’s Kendall Somer earned third overall in 16:50.21.
Queens and Drury matched each other in terms of team points with Queens remaining in the lead, 443.5-378.5.

With his swim cap falling off throughout the final 200 yards, Queens’ Nick Arakelian took home his fourth victory this week as he swept the 1000 free, 400 IM, 500 free and 1650 free on subsequent nights. Arakelian was even nice enough to retrieve his cap after the win.
Arakelian won the 1650 free with a time of 15:10.33, while Saint Leo’s Daniel Bis finished second in 15:12.05 after initially battling with Arakelian throughout much of the race.
Queens’ Alex Menke took third in 15:16.84, while Drury’s Alec Morris picked up some big team points for the Panthers with a fifth-place 15:26.95.
Queens jumped out to a 352.5-316.5 lead following the event.

Queen’s Patricia Castro Ortega claimed her fourth individual NCAA D2 title with a record-breaking time of 48.92. Castro Ortega won the 200 IM, 200 free, 500 free and 100 free this week.
Her time cleared the 48.94 set by Wayne State’s Ana Azambuja back in 2014.
Drury’s Janet Yu hit the wall second in 19.29, while Nova Southeastern’s Bryndis Hansen took third in 49.37.
Drury’s Wen Xu (49.45) and Queens’ Lillian Gordy (50.08) finished fourth and seventh with Queens pushing its lead to 484.5-410.5 against defend champs Drury.

Nova Southeastern’s Thiago Sickert touched out Bridgeport’s Ruben Gimenez, 43.18 to 43.22, in the men’s 100-yard free finale.
The two went out fast with 20.mid times at the 50, but couldn’t hold on to that speed to down Andrey Seryy’s 2012 NCAA D2 record of 42.61.
Drury’s Samuel Olson took third overall in 43.68 as Drury cut Queens’ lead to 352.5-332.5 following the event with zero points for Queens in the event.
Notably, after having to make the the B final with a swimoff victory for 16th, Carson-Newman’s Stephen Parson let it all hang out in the consolation heat to finish ninth overall in 44.23.

Drury’s Katya Rudenko nearly took down the NCAA D2 record with a time of 1:55.71. That swim just missed the 1:55.57 set by Queens’ Caroline Arakelian just a year ago.
Rudenko’s underwaters definitely helped her to the backstroke sweep this week as she already won the 100 back in 52.75.
Cal Baptist’s Mary Hanson raced her way to second overall in 1:56.85 with Arakelian winding up third with a time of 1:57.66.
Drury cut into Queens lead with an extra point scorer as Chelsea Staab took seventh in 2:00.08. Queens finished the event ahead 500.5-442.5.

Queens’ Matt Josa closed out an amazing run of swims at the 2015 NCAA D2 Championships.
Josa won the 200-yard back with a 1:41.45, missing his NCAA D2 record of 1:40.74 from last year. This week, he moved to 19th all time in the 200 IM, 10th all time in the 100 fly and also won the 200 fly last night.
Lindenwood’s Krzysztof Jankiewicz raced his way to second tonight in 1:42.43 with Grand Valley’s Metin Ayden earning third in 1:44.26.
With four total point scorers compared to Drury’s two, Queens managed to extend its lead to 386.5-358.5.

Lynn’s Rebecca Matthews crushed the NCAA D2 record in the 200-yard breast with a winning time of 2:10.77. That swim cleared the 2:11.45 set by Drury’s Agnieszka Ostrowska for Drury a year ago.
That gave Matthews a breaststroke sweep as she already won the 100 breast in 1:01.03.
Cal Baptist’s Alena Rumiantceva hit the wall second overall in 2:13.32 with LIU Post’s Caroline Rademacher earning third tonight in 2:13.61.

Men’s 200 breast

Nova Southeastern freshman Anton Lobanov might not have won as many titles as Queens’ Matt Josa, but he certainly has had better top-end swims with his breaststroke sweep.
After jumping to sixth all time in the 100 breast, Lobanov followed that up by vaulting to eighth all time in the men’s 200-yard breast with a ridiculously fast 1:51.71.
That swim dropped five seconds from his prelim swim of 1:56.91, and smashed the NCAA D2 record of 1:54.45 clocked by Nicholas Korth of UCSD a year ago.
Notably, Queens’ Nic Eriksson (1:55.65) and Cal Baptist’s Nikolay Klepikov (1:56.32) took second and third, while Queens still held the team lead 409.5-377.5 against Drury.
Queens has the title won barring a relay disqualification.
