WENHAM, Mass – Gordon Swim team's second meet of the season resulted in a second place finish for the Women's squad in a three team contest, while the Men's team came up short against the Elms College Blazers, falling 133-114.
 
The afternoon was started for the Fighting Scots with a strong second place finish to Simmons College for the Women's "A" team in the 200 Yard Relay Medley. On the Men's side, Gordon's "A" squad loss to Elms by a finger's length with sophomore anchor Cameron Schofield (Middleboro, Mass.) reaching the wall milliseconds behind his Elms' counterpart Aaron Starke.
