FAIRBANKS, Ak. - Senior Theresa Simcic won her second individual event in two days and the 200-yard freestyle relay team earned a victory as the Shippensburg women's swimming team concluded their trip to Alaska with the second meet against the Nanooks of Alaska-Fairbanks.

Shippensburg (2-8) dropped a 121-84 decision to the Nanooks on Saturday afternoon (Alaska time) from the pool inside the Patty Center at the University of Alaska-Fairbanks but continued to perform extremely well against one of the stronger programs in Division II.

Simcic, who won the 50-yard freestyle in 25.95 seconds on Friday, aced the 100-yard freestyle on Saturday with a time of 56.07 seconds. Her performance edged UAF's Jacqueline Van Driessche by 0.13 seconds.

She also finished the final leg of the 200-yard freestyle relay team that finished first with a time of 1:43.32. Simcic was once again flanked by junior Whitney Garner, freshman Nicole Capozzi and senior Mandi Foltz.

The four-day tournament will be held from Thursday, February 19 through Sunday, February 22.
