SWARTHMORE, Pa.
- After the winter break and training trip to Puerto Rico, the Swarthmore College women's swimming team was back in action Wednesday evening hosting Centennial Conference opponent Bryn Mawr. The Garnet won 10 of 11 events for a 134-67 victory over the Owls.

In the 1,000 freestyle freshmen Abigail Byrne and Eliana Cohen recorded season-best marks of 11:20.62 and 11:52.49, respectively. Bryne placed first in the event and holds the team's best mark of the season.

Freshman Erica Flor took the 200-yard freestyle with her season-best finish of 2:04.77 - over two seconds quicker than the second place finisher, senior Rebecca Teng (2:06.59).

After a semester abroad, juniors Kate Wiseman and Supriya Davis returned to the pool in strong fashion as both collected event victories. Wiseman swam the 200-yard IM in 2:17.38, while Davis raced past her competitors for a 58.58 finish in the 100-yard butterfly.
