After defeating the Ball State Cardinals, 167-133 on Jan. 22, Eastern Michigan University’s swim and dive team traveled to Oxford, Ohio on Jan. 28 to compete against Miami University, inside of the Corwin X. Nixon Aquatic Center. Despite a strong showing, the Eagles ultimately lost 137-161. Six EMU team members triumphed, coming in first place in their events.

Bethany Berger finished first place in the 1-meter (287.70) and Camyrn Hughes also claimed a first place victory in the 3-meter race (270.70).

Other Eagles also pulled off first place finishes in races, including Sav Mouat in the 1,000-yard freestyle (10:31.17), Ali Staver in the 200-yard butterfly, Olivia Clarino in the 100-yard butterfly (57.13), and Riley Hofmann in the 200-yard individual medley (2:06.95).

Eastern's swim and dive head coach, Derek Perkin, shared his thoughts on the Eagles performance in an article published by EMU Athletics.

“Hard-fought meet today, the girls came up a little short, but the energy and the performances were still at a high level. The team showed a lot of fight. Not the result we wanted, but definitely things to build on heading into the MAC championship,“ said coach Derek Perkin.

Next up, the Eagles will participate in a Super Senior Day Extravaganza at the Canham Natatorium Feb. 5 to celebrate the seniors on their team. On Feb. 12, EMU will travel to Columbus, Ohio to compete in the Ohio State Winter Invitational before heading into the Mid-American Conference Championships.
