COLLEGE STATION, Texas. - UNLV competed in two events on the second day of action on Friday morning at the 2009 NCAA Men's Swimming and Diving Championships. This year's championship is being held from Thursday through Saturday at the Texas A&M Student Rec Center Natatorium in College Station, Texas.

One Rebel swam an individual event, as sophomore Akos Molnar placed 23rd in the 100 breast with a swim of 53.82. He was .35 out of 16th place, which would have advanced him to the night's consolation heat. UNLV also entered a team in the 200 medley relay, and Charlie Tapp, Molnar, Steven Nelms and Thomas Andolfsson would finish 22nd in a time of 1:29.48.
