Swim/dive team beats Mount Union
ADA — The Ohio Northern women's swimming and diving team posted a 160-120 victory over Mount Union in a rare Sunday afternoon meet at the ONU Sports Center Natatorium.
The Polar Bears improve to 3-1 overall and are 2-1 in the Ohio Athletic Conference with the victory, while the Purple Raiders fall to 4-2, 1-2.
Senior Sydney Veon (Riverside, Ill./Riverside-Brookfield) led the Polar Bears with four victories on the afternoon.
In a span of about 10 minutes, Veon won the 100 breast in 1:08.63 and the 50 free in :25.66. Later in the meet she won the 100 free in :56.56.
"Great day for us today," Ewald said. "We made some effective gains and swam tired yet fast. To turn around from our training trip in 48 hours and race this well, it is promising. We have more work to execute over the remainder of regular season. Tap the force of energy, we will!
The Polar Bears will take to the road next Friday night with a final OAC match of the season at Baldwin Wallace in the annual battle for the Golden Kickboard.
