Freshman swimmer Raymond Kam had a stellar performance in Oakland over the weekend as he took home the Eagles’ lone individual victories at the Bay Area Invite on Oct. 22. Kam finished first in men’s 100-yard breaststroke with a final time of 1:00.50 and came away with the men’s 200-yard breaststroke title as well. Kam continues to provide Biolans a glimpse into the Eagles’ future as a viable NCAA Division II contender, as Kam outpaced several University of California Santa Cruz Banana Slugs on his way to a dominant day in the pool. Additionally, Kam was a top three finisher in four out of five events he competed in.

Stats:

– 3rd in men’s 400-yard medley relay

– 1st in men’s 100-yard breaststroke

– 1st in men’s 200-yard breaststroke

– 2nd in men’s 100-yard butterfly

– 4th in the men’s 200-yard freestyle relay.

About the Contributor
Kyle Kohner, Copy Editor & Office Manager
Amid his final year with the Chimes, Kyle is a four-year vet of the publication. Before this year, Kyle began his tenure like most at the Chimes—as a freelancer and an apprentice. He’s also held positions as the online editor and the A&E staff writer in the past. He also demands that you all go watch the movie “Hereditary.” Hello there! My name is Kyle Kohner, born and raised in San Bernardino, California. I am a senior journalism student at Biola University and a self-proclaimed film buff and music addict. A movie and music critic by trade, I am a firm believer that watching film and listening to music go hand-in-hand. Because the two mediums make the world go round and humanity sane, I see it is as my job and passion to discern the good from the bad within the differing yet kindred realms of entertainment. Aside from passion for the arts, it is probably worth noting that I am the Chimes’ office manager and copy editor. I, alongside Victoria try to make sure that the content produced by this publication are without flaws. If you see an article containing the wrong usage of “they’re” or “Its,” it’s probably my fault. Outside of the Chimes, I can be seen—you guessed it—listening to music and watching movies. But I also have a deep passion for street photography.
