Sophomore Emily Johnson and first-year Megan Darnley took the top-two spots in both diving events to lead the Trinity College Bantams to a 160-137 win over the visiting Colby College Mules in a women's swimming and diving quad meet at Trinity Natatorium this afternoon. Trinity, which also dropped a 192-104 decision against the Bowdoin College Polar Bears in the meet, are now 3-5 in dual meets this winter. Wesleyan University also participated in the meet, but the Bantams and Cardinals did not compete against each other in the team scoring.
Johnson won the one-meter event with a score of 225.15 and the three-meter event at 229.95, while Darnley finished roughly 10 points ahead of the third-place diver off both boards with a one-meter score of 176.90 and a three-meter score of 192.95. Bantam rookie Lexi Moroney added a second-place time of 56.11 in the 100-yard freestyle, and sophomore Joanna Wycech took third place in the 200-yard breaststroke at 2:32.91. Trinity led Colby for the majority of the meet, and two Bantam relay foursomes finished ahead of all three Colby entries in the 200-yard freestyle relay to clinch the win in the day's final race.
The men's team dropped a pair of decisions as the Bantams lost to the Bowdoin College Polar Bears, 211-86, and just narrowly to the Colby College Mules, 146-141. Trinity senior Adam Eramo won the 500-yard freestyle at 4:57.88 and first-year Sam Ruddock won the 200-yard free at 1:48.57. Ruddock also earned a second-place finish in the 100-yard freestyle at 49.42, while sophomores Mark Yanagisawa and Max Ma were third in the 200-yard butterfly and the 200-yard breaststroke, respectively. Trinity and Colby traded leads throughout the meet, and Colby's 200-yard freestyle "A" relay team finished .34 seconds faster than Trinity's "A" foursome to clinch the victory for the Mules in the day's last race.
