ALLENTOWN, Pa. – Junior Anri Cifuentes Robinson (Easton, Md./Easton) and first-year Luke Schwenk (Annapolis, Md./Broadneck) each captured four events Saturday afternoon as the St. Mary's College of Maryland men's swim team got back to Atlantic East Conference action. St. Mary's College (4-4, 2-2 AEC) claimed first-place in 10 of 14 events but dropped a 122-109 decision to Gallaudet University (1-2, 1-1 AEC) in a neutral site dual meet hosted by Cedar Crest College.
