TOLEDO, Ohio (EMUEagles.com)—Eastern Michigan University's women's swimming and diving team avenged last year's setback against Mid-American Conference foe the University of Toledo, claiming a 197-103 victory over the Rockets, Oct. 24.
The Eagles won 10-of-16 events and performed evenly across the board. The squad started and ended the meet with a victory by claiming both the 200 medley and 400 free relays. The medley lineup of Alexis Mitcheltree (Moon Twp., Pa.-Moon Area), Monica Dorszewski (Palatine, Ill.-Palatine), Carly Jackson (La Porte, Ind.-La Porte), and Sara Ghaffari (Bolinas, Sweden-Torsbergsgynasiet) touched the wall at 1:46.22, just .05 seconds ahead of the quartet of Mary Kate MacLean (Bloomfield Hills, Mich.-Detroit Country Day), Genna Worthley (Portland, Maine-Deering), Makenzie Garringer (Napoleon, Ohio-Napoleon), and Jessie Godlewski (Apex, N.C.-Apex) to finish first and second in the opening event. In the meet-closing 400 free relay, the Eagles took the first and second spots again in another tight intersquad finish. Dorszewski, Abby Saddler (Chanhassen, Minn.-Minnetonka), Ghaffari, and Jackson edged out Grace Van Allen (Indianapolis, Ind.-North Central), Becca Detro (Carmel, Ind.-Carmel), Godlewski, and Sierra Wagner (Huntsville, Texas-Huntsville). The winning team recorded a time of 3:32.76, while the second Green and White lineup touched in at 3:32.91.
Butterfly events were dominated by the Green and White as the team won both the 100 and 200 fly. Ghaffari took the title in the 100 fly in 57.01, followed by Godlewskiin 57.57. In the 200 fly, Jackson edged out reigning two-time MAC champion Godlewski in 2:04.46, while Godlewski took runner-up in 2:05.06.
Wins also rolled in for the Green and White in the 50, 200, and 500 freestyle. MacLean won the 50 free in 24.30 and was closely followed by freshman Saddler her first meet donning the Eagle cap, who touched in at 24.32 for second. Detro paced the Eagles in the 200 free, which was a 1-2-3 sweep for the team. Detro finished well ahead of the field in 1:51.79, followed by Van Allen in 1:53.60 and Wagner in 1:54.48. Van Allen went on to lead another sweep in the 500 free in 5:04.59. Jackson was not far behind Van Allen in 5:05.22, while Allison Murslack (Gibsonia, Pa.-Pine-Richland) took the third spot in 5:06.86.
In the 100 free, MacLean was out-touched by a margin of just .11 seconds, earning the runner-up finish before Wagner and Detro would roll in within a .20-second span. The 1000 free was paced by Murslack in 10:30.43, followed by Audra Burtch (Goshen, Ind.-Concord) in 10:36.63 and a career-best performance by Abby Aumiller (Canton, Mich.-Salem) in 10:38.70.
