BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The dual meet season comes to an end on Friday as the Lehigh swimming and diving teams head to Army West Point for a 5 p.m. meet streamed live on ESPN+.
The men and women are both looking for victories to put an end to losing streaks as the both have lost two straight meets on the calendar, most recently swimming to defeats to Bucknell on Senior Day at Jacobs Pool last Saturday.
In a 193-105 loss to the Bison Saturday, the men were led by a senior effort, as the upperclassmen accounted for all five of the Mountain Hawks' first place finishes on the afternoon. Owen Thomas picked up a pair of wins while Connor Sept, Glenn Lasco and diver Addison Cochran each won once.
Thomas was victorious in the 100-yard backstroke with a time of 51.18, while getting the win in the 200-yard backstroke, swimming to a time of 1:54.98.
Sept picked up a victory in the second event of the meet, the 100-yard breaststroke, timing in at 57.59.
Lasco narrowly missed out on a win in his signature event, the 50-yard freestyle with a second-place time of 21.14. He was able to get the win in the 100-yard event with a mark of 46.53.
Cochran won the one-meter dive with his score of 264.30 and took home a second-place finish in the three-meters with a score of 257.03.
The Mountain Hawks are 2-4 this season, 1-2 in Patriot League action after a victory over Lafayette back on Nov. 19.
The Black Knight men are 5-3 this year and are riding a two-meet win streak, most recently getting wins over Columbia and Bucknell.
Senior diver Daniel Alaimo was named Patriot League Diver of the Week for the fifth time this season on Tuesday.
The Lehigh women are coming off a tough loss to Bucknell Saturday, falling 199-101 at Jacobs Pool.
In total, the Mountain Hawks earned four first-place finishes led by two wins for fifth year senior Ann Foley and a win each for Sarah Hardy and first year diver Sarah Gill.
Foley started the day off with a second-place finish in the 200-yard freestyle with a time of 1:54.42, but was able to claw back with a win in the 50-yard freestyle (24.29). She also claimed victory in the 100-yard freestyle with time of 52.46.
Hardy won the 200-yard butterfly with a winning time of 2:03.21 while racking up two second-place finishes in the 200-yard backstroke (2:06.26) and the 100-yard butterfly (56.80).
On the boards, Gill got back to her winning ways with a victory in the one-meter dive with a score of 262.88.
The Army women have struggled this season with an overall record of 3-6 and are still searching for its first Patriot League dual victory of the campaign. The Black Knights have dropped three straight dual meets to Bucknell, Navy and Virginia.
