YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - The Toledo women's swimming and diving team earned a 205-90 win over Youngstown State Saturday afternoon in Youngstown. Freshman Lauren Kilgore led the way with a meet-high 27 points. 

"We had a strong performance today coming off a Friday night full of racing," said head coach Brie Globig. "It is always great to see strong results two days in a row. I look forward to our next meet at Akron."

Kilgore opened the afternoon winning the 200 butterfly with a time of 2:07.19. Joining Kilgore in the top-three of the 200 fly was junior Emma Sampson, who took third with a time of 2:17.88. Kilgore added in two more wins, taking first in the 100 freestyle and 200 IM. Kilgore was joined by junior Lisa Eriksson in the 100 free, with Eriksson coming in third in the event. Sophomore Kendra Polewski and Eriksson finished right behind Kilgore in the 200 IM, taking second and third, respectively.

Cami Cahill, Jovana Duric, Samantha Ekleberry, Ashley Jeffreys, Izzy Jones, Duda Sales, and Bec Welke each took home a first-place finish in their respective events.

The Rockets took first on both boards in the diving well. Sophomore Sydney Jackson took first on the one-meter board, while sophomore Joelle Gallais took first on the three-meter board.

The Rockets will be back in the water Friday, Oct. 25 as they travel to Akron for their first Mid-American Conference dual meet of the season. The meet is set to begin at 5:00 p.m.
