Clark Handles Gordon In Dual Meet

In an afternoon matchup at Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts, the Gordon College Women's Swim team battled through all 14 events but were eventually defeated by the Cougars, 211-68.

Starting the scoring off for the Fighting Scots was Grace Haxhinasto, who earned herself a second place finish as the freshman touched the wall at 13:00.85 in the 1000 yard freestyle. Then, Gina Oulette came in third place in the 50 yard backstroke with a time of 38.87. In the 50 yard breaststroke, Olivia Rose was narrowly edged out for the top spot as the senior finished .08 behind Clark's top swimmer. Later, Carley Ross and Oulette orchestrated a two, three punch as both swimmers secured second and third place finishes with times of 2:45.62 and 3:08.63, respectively in the 200 yard butterfly. In a photo finish in the 50 yard freestyle, Janelle Maxwell earned third place (27.97) just behind a pair of Clark swimmers who snatched the top two spots (27.48 and 27.52). Working together to drum up points for Gordon, Rose and Ross posted times of 3:04.40 and 3:08.79 to come in third and fourth place, respectively. Collecting the Scots' first top finish on the day was the steady Maxwell who got her revenge in the 50 yard butterfly coming in first place with a time of 31.21, which was just .30 ahead of the second place finisher from Clark. In the 100 yard IM, Oulette raced her way to the freshman's best finish of the afternoon for a second place finish with her time of 1:21.60. Rounding off the points for the blue and white in the final event of the day was Charlotte Cummings, Lillyan DeFeo, Monicka Pradieu, and Oulette who worked together to come in second with a total time of 2:10.74.

The Fighting Scots are back in action on Saturday, December 4 as they travel to Bridgewater, Mass. for the Bridgewater State Invitational.
