OMAHA, Neb. – The Omaha swimming and diving program fell 153-68 against Big 12 opponent Iowa State Friday evening at the H&K Pool.
Two Mavericks picked up first-place victories at the meet.
Three-time Summit League Diver of the Week and NCAA Qualifier Annika Clinton finished first in the 1-meter dive with a score of 258.82.Â
In the 3-meter dive, Clinton finished runner-up behind Iowa State's Dana Livan (269.70) with a 252.16.
Rachel Morrow won the 100-yard freestyle after she tallied a time of 52.74 seconds. The junior also finished second in the 50-yard free when she recorded a time of 24.65 seconds.
In the 100-yard fly, Bethany Gatlin and Grete Baker recorded second and third-place finishes with times of 59.06 and 59.35, respectively. Baker also had a runner-up finish in the 100-yard breaststroke after she tallied a time of 1:09.53.
The 200-yard IM featured Rebecca Martini's runner-up result when she recorded a time of 2:12.06.
Lastly, the team of Morrow, Kylie Vermiere, Anna Capoun and Kirsten Kracke concluded the event in second with a time of 3:38.75.
"Tonight was a good meet for our program," said head coach Todd Samland. "After challenging the athletes with some hard training over the holiday break, they were in a slightly fatigued state. We were hoping for a competitive spirit tonight and that is what we saw. I am very proud of how we competed. The challenge continues tomorrow when we host Nebraska. I am looking forward to seeing how we respond."
Omaha returns to action tomorrow at the H&K Poll as in-state foe Nebraska makes the short trip from Lincoln. The meet is slated for a 2 p.m. start time. For more information, visit OMavs.com.
