PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Three first-year swimmers won individual event titles and multiple Ivy records were broken on the third day of competition at the 2025 Ivy League Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships inside the Katherine Moran Coleman Aquatics Center on the campus of Brown University.
 
First-year Arshak Hambardzumyan (8:51.52) of Yale opened Friday’s final session with a win in the 1,000-Yard Freestyle, while teammate and fellow first-year Nicholas Finch claimed his second individual title in as many nights with a Ivy meet and pool record swim of 44.57 in the 100-Yard Butterfly.
 
The 400-Yard I.M. saw Brown freshman Marton Nagy reach the wall in 3:42.64 to earn the win, and Princeton junior Mitchell Schott won his second event of the Championships with a time of 1:31.63 in the 200-Yard Freestyle.
 
Brown senior Jack Kelly set a new Ivy meet and pool record in the 100-Yard Breaststroke, as his time of 50.60 earned him a win in the event for the second consecutive year. His time is the third fastest in the NCAA this season. Penn senior Matt Fallon, a Paris Olympian, finished second in the event in 51.56. Fallon and Kelly traded meet records throughout the day. Fallon overtook Kelly’s record, set at last year’s championship, in the second heat of the prelims with a 51.46 – only to see Kelly earn it back two heats later with a 51.25.
 
Junior Pietro Ubertalli of Cornell took the top spot in the 100-Yard Backstroke for his first career Ivy title and Big Red’s first win in the race in five seasons. Cornell’s 400-Yard Medley Relay team of Ubertalli, Sebastian Wolff, Joseph Gurski, and Dominic Edwards swam to pool record time of 3:06.39 to take gold.
