Top MIAC Freshman

According to the fantasy points sent by MAC, Mering is the highest scorer, with Reinhart and Murell close behind. I’d say based on his best times and how he’s progressed since the beginning of the season, Reinhart has to be considered the top freshman. I still think Nathan Young will end up scoring the most when it comes down to it though. It still kills me that I didn’t pull the trigger on selecting him.

This is how I rank them based on estimated points scored at conference. I’ve upgraded Whitaker, Moore, Kilgour, and Okeefe based on what I’ve seen thus far. Williams is a huge downgrade from his HS times.

5 pts for Murrel?? You would have scored more than 5 pts in this meet in 7th grade. Are you saying that the 7th grade Mac is better than the 19-ish year-old Murrel? Poppycock! Ludicrous! Bull Hurl! Seriously, that is 2 15th’s and a 16th.

Mac, are you including relay points (pts for the relay divided by four) for the swimmers? I’m guessing that you are, but if not a swimmer cannot score more than 60 points at a Conference meet.
