Bobcats of the week of Dec. 5, 2005
Fisher Qua ’06 The Bates men’s swimming and diving team topped Trinity College on Saturday, 161-123, and the Bobcats probably couldn’t have done it without Qua, a senior co-captain.Qua (Cambridge, N.Y.) was a winner in two individual events, as well as part of Bates’ victorious 200-yard medley relay team (1:45.73), along with first-year Chris Berry, first-year Josh Goldfarb and senior John Bauer.
The versatile Qua also captured first place in the 200 breaststroke (2:30.43) and in the 100 backstroke (1:07.62). Bates competes at Bowdoin College on Tuesday, Dec. 7, in its last meet before semester break. |
