CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - The Duke men's swimming team sits in eighth place after two events at the 2007 ACC Championships, as the Blue Devils competed in the 800 freestyle and 200 medley relays on Wednesday evening at the University of North Carolina's Koury Natatorium in Chapel Hill, N.C.
The Blue Devil 800 freestyle relay team of freshman Sean Smith, seniors Jay Ashenfelter and Jacob McCafferty and junior Scott Champagne finished in a Duke season-best 6:50.98. That time notched the team an eighth-place finish, as the four contributed 22 points to Duke's overall team score.
