BOYDS, Md. - Freshman Hayden Koh turned in a spectacular showing on the second day of the Landmark Conference Swimming & Diving Championships to highlight a day of strong performances for the Drew University men's team.

Koh won a pair of events in impressive fashion in  Saturday  night's finals session, starting with a victory in the 100-butterfly. With a time of 48.43, he won by nearly three seconds and broke the school, meet, and Landmark Conference record while improving upon his NCAA B cut for the second time of the day, duplicating the feat he set during prelims when he clocked a 48.81.
