The Falcons returned to Cooper Pool with a fury in last evening’s meet against the Vikings of Cleveland State.

They won convincingly 170-124 on Senior Night. BG won nine of the night’s fourteen swimming events. The team placed first and second place in four races, while they placed in the top three spots in two. Even when the Vikings did win, the Falcons took the second spot and third in many of the races.

As for the two seniors honored last night including Sarah Burston and Carrie Enright, they both had successful meets. Burston placed in top four in each of her three individual races, while she also helped her team earn a second place finish in the 200 medley relay. Enright raced on the winning 200 freestyle relay team; she also finished fourth in both of her individual races on the night.

Once again, sophomore Alexis Kain swept her signature events in the 100 and 200 breaststroke events. In the 200, Junior Amanda Rom kept close on Kain’s tail by only finishing one second shy of Kain’s time.

Junior Vicky Yu also had a great night winning two of the three individual races she participated in. Yu and Kain also helped the Falcons win the 200 medley relay.

Another winner on the night was Junior Jennifer Beatty, who won the 1000 freestyle and took second in both the 500 freestyle and the 200 backstroke events. Brittany Szekely competed in both of the winning relay teams.

Now, with a quick turnaround the Falcons head up to Toledo to take on the Rockets for the last MAC dual meet of the season. BG will take their momentum to Toledo’s Student Recreational Center tonight starting at 5 p.m.

Toledo enters the meet with a record of 3-3 in dual meets. Both teams competed in the Eastern Michigan Invitational in December. The Falcons finished fourth overall, which was three spots ahead of the Rockets.

BG will try to avenge last year’s loss at the hands of the Rockets at Cooper Pool, 158-99.
