WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind.
– Seven Boilermakers won multiple events as the Purdue swimming & diving teams were victorious in 27 of the 32 events in a dual meet sweep of Michigan State on Friday at the Morgan J. Burke Aquatic Center.

Mallory Jump touched first in both backstroke events as well as the 100 butterfly, running her season total for individual victories to seven. She is now tied for the women's team lead with Emily Bretscher after the junior diver swept the springboard events at dual meet for the third time this season.

All-American Nikola Aćin made his season debut Friday, returning from injury. He swept the freestyle sprints, leading the way as the men enjoyed 1-2 finishes in both events.

Nick McDowell swept the distance freestyle events vs. Michigan State for the fourth consecutive year. He's now at seven individual event victories this season. Only Greg Duncan has move event wins (8) for Purdue. The junior diver also swept the springboard events at a dual meet for the third time. Duncan has won eight of the nine events in which he has competed at NCAA meets. Bretscher is an similarly impressive 7-for-9 in event wins.

Freshman Claire Abbasse not only swept the freestyle sprints but also anchored both of Purdue's relay teams to victory.

Brett Riley was a two-time winner (200 back, 200 IM) for the second weekend in a row. He joined Jump as the only Boilermakers to win multiple events at Saturday's FIU Sprint Invite and the first dual meet of the new calendar year.

Three members of the women's junior class demonstrated their versatility by winning their secondary events. That trio included Natalie Myers (200 free), Riley Kishman (200 IM) and Gretta DeCoursey (500 free).

Four different Boilermakers won a breaststroke race, with Jinq En Phee (100), Sylvia Kobylak (200), Trent Pellini (100) and Will Schrensky (200) comprising that quintet. Phee and Schrensky won a breaststroke race for the second weekend in a row.

Ryan Hrosik and Ryan Lawrence contributed to both of Purdue's relay winners.

The Boilermakers are back in action Saturday, Jan. 25 for their annual rivalry dual with Indiana. Action is set for 11 a.m. ET in Bloomington.
