...Harvard men’s swimming and diving team gave returning alumni something to cheer about on Friday night at Blodgett pool, as the team swam to a 171-127 triumph over the visiting Columbia Lions. The victory marked a strong rebound from a disappointing loss to Cornell last weekend, and was particularly sweet for a team that incurred its first loss in two years against Columbia in 2005. “It’s always nice to beat a team that dismantled you in years past,” co-captain Jason Degnan-Rojeski said...
