Tech captured decisive victories in both the men’s and women’s meets, while the home team GWU showed its distance prowess with several wins in the discipline. The Hokie men move to 9-3 all-time against the reigning A-10 champions, while Tech’s women advance to 10-2.
The men’s 100 breaststroke ACC Champion, Eli Martin, showed no signs of a sophomore slump in his season debut. Martin won the 100 breaststroke in 55.03, the 200 breast in 2:00.28, and the 200 IM in 1:49.65. Compared to this meet during his freshman season, his times today were 1.2, 1.5, and 6 seconds faster, respectively.
In addition to his individual slate of events, Martin kicked off the meet with a 200 medley relay win in 1:27.46. The Hokies tapped Brendan Whitfield, Martin, Landon Gentry, and William Hayon for this relay, in order.
Whitfield and Gentry left D.C. with two individual wins each of their own. Now a junior, Whitfield impressed with a 1:36.70 win immediately following the medley relay as well as a 42.87 victory in the 100 free. This kick-off bodes well for the NCAA 100 free B-finalist, as his 200 free improved over two seconds from this meet last year.
Gentry, meanwhile, picked up the butterfly sweep at the commencement of his senior season. The Virginia native stopped the clock in 47.86/1:47.43, a respective 2/4 second drop from his season-opening times as a junior.
The lone freshman Hokie winner, Andy Roose touched first in both the 100 (49.18) and 200 (1:45.89) backstroke events.

Weiler, who enters her final year as a Hokie, turned in a strong 53.60/1:55.65 combo individually. She also took part in both of Tech’s winning relays: the 200 medley (1:40.76) and 400 free (3:22.45).
Tech found its biggest individual winner on the women’s side in junior Nichelly Lysy, who swept both breaststroke events and the 200 IM. She registered 1:02.23/2:15.79 in the breaststrokes and 2:02.75 in the IMs.
Emily Claesson’s sprint free double shows she will once again be one of VT’s go-to sprinters during her senior year. She won the events in 23.22/50.06, the latter representing a half second improvement from this meet in 2024.
GW’s strongest performances came from the distance events, of which they won three out of four. A-10 mile and 500 champion Ava Topolewski continues to impress as she picked up twin first places in the 500 (4:50.42) and 100 (9:53.60). Of note, her 500 time today sits less than four seconds away from her conference winning time from the spring, while her 1000 free marks a 23-second drop from this meet in 2024.
Daniel Choi made it a GWU sweep in the meet’s longest event by turning in a 9:19.03 victory in the men’s 1000. Choi also enjoyed a massive drop from this meet last year, in which he went 9:35.75.
