SWIM | Women 1st, Men 2nd at LU Invitational

The Voyageurs swim teams dove into the Jeno Tihanyi Olympic Gold Pool this weekend for their final tune-up before their divisional championships and came away with a number of impressive individual results.  Competing against Waterloo and Queen's, the women's squad went toe to toe with the Warriors all weekend, edging them out on Sunday for the team victory.  On the men's side, Waterloo jumped out to a comfortable lead after the first day of racing and sealed the deal on Sunday to take the title while the Voyageurs had to settle for second.

On the women's side, the team was led by first year swimmer, Carling Stever, who had first place finishes in the 400m freestyle, the 400m IM and the 800m freestyle relay to go along with second place finishes in the 200m backstroke and the 200m freestyle relay.
