CHARLOTTE, N.C.- Gardner-Webb had a great showing from junior  Nathan Lile and sophomore Connor Bos at the 2015 Charlotte Arena Pro Swim Series, one of the last stops on the premier USA Swimming Swimming Series.

Both had huge swims during the morning preliminary events and qualified for Friday's Finals session. Lile and Bos' Finals appearance marks a historic first for the Runnin' Bulldog Men's program at this premier Pro Swim Series. 

Bos finished in a lifetime best time of 26.95 in the 50 Meter Backstroke finishing 19th overall, while Lile swam a spectacular 100 Fly in both the preliminary and finals sessions, swimming lifetime best times, 55.3 in the event.

Action resumes tomorrow morning with John Baker (50m free and 100m back) and Lauren Oglesby (400m free) joining Bos (50m free and 100 back) and Lile (50m free) as they look to continue building on the successes of the meet thus far.
