In the 200-yard breaststroke and the 500-yard freestyle, the Crimson displayed the depth that earned it a victory. In the breaststroke, Rathgeber came in first with a time of 2:06.04. He was closely followed his teammates, freshman Justin Davidson, freshman Mike Polino, and sophomore Simone Melillo. Harvard dominated similarly in the freestyle.
