DUBLIN, IRELAND. – NC State men’s swimming signee Barrett Miesfeld won two events this past weekend at the 2010 Irish Long Course Championships, taking both the 50-meter butterfly and the 100-meter butterfly.
A native of Tucson, Ariz., Miesfeld signed with head coach Brooks Teal and the Wolfpack program this past December.
Miesfeld swam a 24.76 to take first in the 50 butterfly, later claiming the 100 butterfly with a 55.42. He also recorded a 1:59.17 in the 200 freestyle and a 2:10:23 in the 200 butterfly prelims.
In relay action, Miesfeld swam with the 400-medley relay second-place squad that posted a 3:49.75.
Miesfeld will join the Wolfpack on the heels of a stellar prep career with The Catalina Foothills High School and Tucson Ford swim team. Having competed under nationally recognized coach Roric Fink, he will give the Wolfpack an immediate boost in its very young butterfly corps. A 2009 4A high school champion in the 100 butterfly and 200 individual medley, Miesfeld also qualified for both the Senior Nationals and Junior Nationals. He aims to rise to the top of the ACC very quickly with a combination of great leg strength and quickness. Barrett will major in environmental technology, having selected NC State over Arizona State and Georgia Tech.
