TOLEDO, Ohio - The University of Toledo women's swimming and diving team had an outstanding performance against Oakland University on Friday night but fell to the Golden Grizzlies, 174-126.
"The team had very impressive races and dives tonight against a tough opponent," said interim head coach Brie Globig. "We were extremely happy with our performances and are ready to keep working hard for more improvement. It was an amazing start to the season, and we can't wait to see how we do tomorrow."
Senior Duda Sales was a force in the pool, earning two individual wins and swimming the butterfly portion of the second-place 200 medley relay team. Alongside teammates Ashley Jeffreys, Bec Welke and Lisa Eriksson, the team swam a 1:44.76 in the relay, touching the wall less than a second behind Oakland's "A" team.
Freshmen Lisa Lohner and Lauren Kilgore added a win of their own to their resumes. Lohner started the individual events off with a  win in the 1000 freestyle. She also placed second in the 500 freestyle later in the meet. Kilgore took first in the 400 IM, touching the wall in 4:29.30. Senior Bec Welke took first in the 100 breaststroke, touching the wall in 1:04.58.
The Rockets will compete at Youngstown State on Saturday, Oct. 19. The meet is set to begin at 3:00 p.m.
