BROOKINGS, S.D. -- The UNO swimming & diving team competed in a double dual with South Dakota State and Northern Iowa on Saturday afternoon at the HPER Center Pool. The Mavericks posted a 162-128 win over UNI and fell 155-124 to the host Jackrabbits.
Sophomore Kylie Rathbone led the team with two event wins in the 100-yard breaststroke (1:06.63) and the 100-yard freestyle (53.97).
Senior Colleen Klaiber led the field in the 50 free in a time of 24.95. She, along with freshman Ashley Kneifl, junior Cami Hansberry and sophomore Whitney Korgan, also captured first in the 400 freestyle relay with a mark of 3:37.71.
Freshman Christen Young swam to a first-place finish in the 200-yard butterfly with a time of 2:13.21, and sophomore Maddie Hutt clocked a time of 2.22.31 in the 200 breast for her own win.
“This was a good test for us today, as this can be a difficult time of the training cycle for our team,” Head Coach Todd Samland said. “SDSU has a very good squad, and we know from competing against UNI earlier this year that they have a very good team as well.
“I was very happy with our team's performance today. We raced extremely well, and it has been a month since we raced, so it was time to get our confidence back. I am looking forward to the next two weekends of competitions; it will be fun and a great experience as we gear up for championship season in February.”
Nebraska Omaha will return to action Jan. 20-21 at the Grinnell Invite. Competition on both days begins at 9 a.m. in Grinnell, Iowa.
