The William and Mary men's swimming team wrapped up competition at the CAA Pod Meet Sunday, earning a split in its two match-ups to improve to 3-1 overall, and 2-1 in the conference.  The Tribe beat host Delaware, 191-156, and fell to defending conference champion UNCW 186-155.  When the Seahawks' 26 points in diving are thrown out, the College was only five points shy of the 11-time champs, and either score is the best showing for W&M against UNCW since 1999-00.
