The Shippensburg University women's swimming team was victorious Friday night in a tri-meet hosted by Fairmont State, posting a 106-95 win over the host Fighting Falcons and a 124-77 triumph over California (Pa.).
SU won five individual events and one relay, with
Olivia Carver claiming two victories on the night by virtue of first-place finishes in the 200-yard individual medley (2:19.34) and the 100-yard freestyle (55.75 seconds).
The Raiders set the tone in the opening event as
Caroline Schweigert,
Charlee Shaw,
Bria Burkholder and
Elyse Arnold edged Cal by four-tenths of a second for a win in the 200-yard medley relay.
Burkholder (1:02.04 in the 100-yard butterfly) and Shaw (1:12.79 in the 100-yard breaststroke) went on to win individual events;
Michelle Kubiak achieved the fastest time of the night in the 500-yard freestyle (5:36.67).
Zoë Midura took second behind Kubiak in the 500 freestyle and delivered SU's top time in the 200-yard freestyle by touching the wall in 2:08.08.
