ONU women's swim team places 3rd
Ohio Northern placed third among 7 teams in the OAC women's swimming and diving competition last weekend at the University of Akron. There were 20 events during the three-day event.
Freshman Lauren Halle (Chandler, Ariz./Hamilton) won the 200 fly.
Sophomore Kierra Watson (Brownsburg, Ind.) earned All-Conference accolades in the 200 back, finishing second.
Junior Sydney Veon (Riverside, Ill./Riverside-Brookfield) and senior Stephanie Brookens (Louisville) earned All-OAC honors in the 100 free.
"We began the journey of the season knowing it was a different day in the OAC," ONU head coach Peggy Ewald said. "We had some great moments and a few surprises. But the 'wins' are not always shown in the score. We have won in more ways than can be count and deduced to numbers. We have reset the mission of this team and the foundation that built the traditions of excellence. The future is promising.
John Carroll won the team title.
