In the 2017 SUNYAC Swimming Championships, Knapp set three program records and two SUNYAC records individually and was part of two program-record setting relays (400 medley, 200 free) as the Hawks finished second overall for the second straight year. Knapp also set two NCAA B-Cut times (100 back, 200 fly).
Knapp set a program and SUNYAC record in the leadoff leg of the 400 medley relay, as he clocked a time of 49.85 in the 100 back. This broke his own previous school record of 51.12 set earlier this season and shattered the old conference mark of 50.90 held by Alex Miller of SUNY Oneonta in 2013.
In the 100 fly finals, Knapp placed second with a reading of 50.26, but earlier in the day in the prelims of the 100 fly, Knapp set another program record with a mark of 50.17, breaking the previous standard of 51.11 held by Caleb Treadwell in 2016.
Knapp won the 200 fly finals with a SUNYAC and program record NCAA B-cut time of 1:51.48 to gain 20 points for the Hawks, shattering his own school record set earlier in the prelims of 1:52.04. The NCAA B-cut standard in this event is 1:52.89. On Friday night, Knapp also earned a B-cut time in the 100 back finals (50.37).
