Final Stats

OXFORD, Ohio--Behind a 188.5-108.5 win against the University at Buffalo on Friday evening at the Nixon Aquatic Center, Miami University's women's swimming and diving team recorded its 47th consecutive Mid-American Conference dual meet win in its league-opening meet.

Miami swept the top three spots in four events--the 1,000-yard freestyle, 200-yard freestyle, 200-yard butterfly and 200-yard breaststroke--and won both the 400-yard medley relay and 400-yard freestyle relay.

The 400-yard medley relay team of junior Malarie Schmidt, sophomore Karen Frazier, senior Kathryn Stephens and junior Allison Stevens won the race in a time of 3:54.30, while the 400-yard freestyle relay team of Stephens, senior Kristen Bezier, junior Maggie French and Stevens won the race in a time of 3:34.19.

Three RedHawk freshmen claimed the top spots in the 1,000-yard freestyle with Sarah Bullock, clocking a time of 10:30.53 to win the event. Kelsey Vehr finished second, while Jensen Henry placed third.

French led a one-two-three finish in the 200-yard freestyle, posting a time of 1:55.05. She was followed by sophomore Allison Way and freshman Nicole Dumont. Schmidt paced a sweep in the 200-yard butterfly, recording a time of 2:08.22. Freshman Taylor Koplow and Frazier placed second and third, respectively.

 

 

Bezier and Stevens were multiple event winners for the RedHawks. Bezier posted wins in the 100-yard breaststroke with a time of 1:06.70 and in the 200-yard breaststroke with a time of 2:24.91. Bezier led a one-two-three finish in the 200-yard breaststroke with Vehr and freshman Megan Brunn finishing in second and third place, respectively. Stevens won 50- and 100-yard freestyles, clocking times of 0:24.48 and 0:53.08, respectively.

The RedHawks also picked up a first-place finish in the 3-meter dive with junior Melissa Roemmele posting a score of 292.80.
