This weekend’s weather did not stop the select members of CSI’s men’s and women’s swimming and diving team from traveling to Pittsburgh for the 2010 ECAC Open Championships. Nikolay Shevchenko, Pavel Buyanov, Vlad Romanov, Joe Lee and April Bartlett represented the College of Staten Island at the Championships that were held at the University of Pittsburgh from Friday through Sunday.
Bartlett was the only member from the women’s team that took part in the Open and helped place the Dolphins in the 22nd spot of the 24 teams in participation. Division I Marist College came in first place at the meet.
The four men came in 11th place out of the 21 teams at the event. CUNY’s rival Baruch College came in 21st place for the men. First place was taken by the Naval Academy.
Bartlett’s lone event was in the women’s one meter dive. She came in 13th place in the preliminaries with a score of 108.60, however, her score was not good enough to place her in the final event.
