First-year Ethan Treat hit the pool with a huge splash in his first ever NESCAC Championship meet, earning NCAA qualifying times in three individual events and impressively breaking NESCAC, meet and pool records. Treat started out the weekend strong with a first place finish in the 200-yard individual medley. He followed this impressive performance the following day with a first-place finish in the 200-yard individual medley. On the final day of competition, Treat finished second in the 200-yard breaststroke.

Junior backup point guard Russell Lee exploded for 27 points in just over 23 minutes in Saturday's 87-78 NESCAC semifinal victory over Trinity College. Coming off the bench in the second half, Lee thrilled the crowd by rattling off 16 points during a 22-7 Amherst run. His shooting sparked the Jeffs to a 70-54 lead which they managed to hold onto in the closing minutes. En route to his career-high 27 points, Amherst's sixth man shot a near-perfect 7-for-8 from the field, went 3-for-4 from three-point range and knocked down 10-of-13 from the charity stripe.
