TOLEDO, OH – Toledo women's swimming and diving will be traveling to Pittsburg, PA on Friday, Nov. 11 for a dual meet against Duquense at 3:00 p.m.

"We are very excited to swim at Duquesne tomorrow," said head coach Jonas Persson. "It will be a tough and competitive meet from beginning to end. We have made some good improvements, but we are still recovering from injuries and sickness. I look forward to continued improvements in technique, race strategies, and approach to each event."

Junior Allie Brinkhoff picked up nine points in the 200 IM with a time of 2:14.70, while sophomore Emily Frederick recorded second place and sophomore Brittany Puthoff followed in third.
