Aggies Gear Up for Art Adamson Invite
Nov 17, 2020 | Men's Swimming and Diving
BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The No. 7 Texas A&M men's swimming & diving team hosts the Art Adamson Invite for the eighth consecutive season. The meet is set to begin Wednesday November 18th and run through Friday November 20th. The Maroon & White will take on Incarnate Word and LSU at the Rec Center Natatorium. Prelims are set to begin daily at 10 a.m., with diving to follow at 2 p.m. and finals are set for 6 p.m. Friday will also include a distance race before finals begin. The invite will not be open to the public.
Junior Shaine Casas leads the Aggies with seven individual wins and three school records so far this season. At the First Chance Invite Casas recorded the fourth-fastest time in the history of the 200 back (1:36.54) and his time of 1:39.23 in the 200 fly against TCU made him the seventh-fastest performer in the history of the event. The McAllen, Texas native has earned Southeastern Conference Male Swimmer of the Week honors three times already this season. Sophomore Andres Puente has been a top swimmer in the 200 Breast earning a first-place finish and a pair of second-place finishes so far this season. Junior Ethan Gogulski picked up two first-place finishes in the 100 and 200 Back in a 180-116 win over TCU.
On the diving board, the Aggies swept the 1-meter against TCU with senior Kurtis Mathews earning first. Sophomore Tony Stewart took second and freshman Kyle Sanchez was third.
The Aggies secured a three-peat at last year's Art Adamson Invite. The Maroon & White set eight school records throughout the three-day meet. Cases set five school records, three pool records and became the national leader in four different events. Puente won the 200 Breast and notched an NCAA A-cut time. Casas, Adam Koster, Kaloyan Bratanov and Mark Theall each earned a school record and NCAA A-cut time in the 400 Free Relay.
The two teams competed in 2018 at the Art Adamson Invite. The Cardinals finished fifth in the three-day event.
