Men's swimmers start well in St. Thomas Relays
October 31, 2005The St. Thomas men's and women's swimming and diving teams opened their 2005-06 seasons with some solid performances Saturday at home in the St. Thomas Relays.
St. Olaf, Macalester and Carleton also competed in the non-team scored meet.
Divers Libby Utesch and Kristin Jarnes placed second and third on both one- and three-meter diving.
"We held our own in selected relays against two of the top teams in the country, Carleton women and St. Olaf men and women," UST coach Tom Hodgson said. "The men's record-setting 200 free relay team picked up where they left off last year, (with Mitch Johnson replacing Dave Linn), and took second behind St. Olaf."
Hodgson praised junior Cathleen Daly (31.88 split in coed 200 Medley Relay, and 1:09.00 split anchoring the winning 300 Breaststroke Relay). the coach also said Heather McFarlane and Kate Boran, (400 Medley Relay), Tim Mullee and T.J. Hardy (300 Back Relay and Coed Medley relay), and Kevin Mullee (fly in the Coed Medley) had strong swims.
UST will compete Friday in a dual meet at Carleton (6 p.m.).
