Saints women swim past Utica

Posted

The St. Lawrence women's swim and diving team combined to win 10 of 13 events in the team's 104-70 win over Utica College in the final dual meet of the 2014-15 season on Saturday afternoon.

Sophomore Gabriella Marchetti led the Saints with three wins in the 400 IM (5:04.75) the 200 fly (2:22.74) and the 500 freestyle (5:55.04) against the Pioneers. In the IM, she edged out teammate Courtney Goodrich (5:08.87), she was the lone competitor in the fly and beat out fellow Saint Caitlin Wiederecht (6:07.24) in the free to finish the day.

Heather Foley picked up a pair of event wins for the Saints in the 100 (57.74) and 200 yard freestyle (2:06.33), as she outswam Utica's Phoebe King in the latter by .22 seconds to earn nine points for the visitors.

The Saints finished one-two in the 200 backstroke, as Goodrich picked up a win for the Scarlet and Brown with a time of 2:25.51 and Julianne Deguardi was second in the event, just over a second behind Goodrich at 2:26.83.

Deguardi won the 1000 freestyle by a nearly 31-second margin as she clocked in at 12:09.47. Rebecca Raab was the other individual winner in the pool on Saturday afternoon; posting a time of 26.82 in the 50 free and edging Grace Gallentine of Utica by .06 seconds.

Julie Hammond dove uncontested on the one meter board, earning a score of 180.90 and nine points for the Saints.

St. Lawrence will now focus its attention on training for the UNYSCSA Championships which begin on Feb. 18.
