Sophomore Niall Janney earned two individual wins against BU on Saturday, touching the wall first in the 400-yard individual medley and the 200-yard butterfly. Harvard easily defeated the Terriers, 201-99.

The Harvard men’s swimming and diving team came out strong this past weekend, narrowly topping Ivy League opponent Brown (2-6, 1-3 Ivy) on Friday and blowing out cross-town rival Boston University (5-4) on Saturday. The wins raise the Crimson’s record to 6-1 (5-0) for the season.

The weekend also marked the last home meets of the Harvard seniors’ collegiate swimming careers. The Crimson celebrated Senior Day in Blodgett Pool by thrashing the Terriers, 201-99.

“It was a tale of two different meets this weekend,” co-captain Tommy Gray said. “Against Brown we came out kind of flat—I think we underestimated them a bit...Saturday against BU was the complete opposite.”
