KENOSHA, Wis. – The Carthage College Red Men opened the 2019 portion of their schedule on a high note Saturday afternoon, defeating the Augustana College Vikings at Koenitzer Aquatic Center, 178-96.
 
The win moves the two-time defending College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin champions to 4-0 on the season and to 2-0 in head-to-head dual meets with CCIW foes.  Augustana falls to 3-2 with the loss.
 
The Red Men started the day off with a convincing win in the 200-yard medley relay to open the meet, as Mitch Scarski, Jack Wallar, Nicholas Nevins and Adam Moskus took first [1:35.60].  Scarski and Nevins followed their first-place relay up with a pair of individual wins for each.  Scarski took first in the 50 backstroke [25.15] and 100 back [54.22], while Nevins took first in the 50 free [21.66] and 200 individual medley [2:04.58].
 
Jack Wallar followed his relay win with a first place swim in the 100 breaststroke [59.44] and Moskus capped his first events with Carthage with a first place win in the 200 free [1:48.42].
