The New York University women's swimming & diving team opened its 2019-20 season on Saturday, October 26, by defeating Rowan University 199-101 in Glassboro, NJ.
The Violets had a trio of swimmers win two individual events.
Sydney Catron (Alexandria, VA/Bishop O'Connell) dominated the 200-yard freestyle (1:56.32) and 200-yard backstroke (2:06.68), winning both by multiple seconds. Next was
Honore Collins (Evanston, IL/Evanston Township), who secured solid victories in the 100-yard backstroke (59.11) and the 200-yard breaststroke (2:27.36). Last but not least was
Isabella Brosvik (Brentwood, TN/Ravenwood), who took first in the 100-yard (59.33) and 200-yard (2:09.11) butterfly events.
"Very impressive performance by the women today," said Head Coach
Trevor Miele. "They all did great on the back half of a back-to-back meet."
In diving,
Carmen White (Lake Bluff, IL/Lake Forest) emerged victorious in both events by a healthy margin. After claiming first place in the one-meter dive (313.28) by nearly 50 points, White came out on top in the three-meter dive (294.45) as well.
