HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Lauren Kilgore, Kennedy Lovell, and the 400 freestyle relay team each set pool records to highlight the Toledo women's swimming & diving team performance at Marshall, but the Rockets ultimately fell 169-131 on Saturday.

UT also had seven runner-up finishes.

Lovell won the 50 freestyle, swam the second leg of the 400 freestyle relay, and set the pool record when she touched first in the 200 freestyle at 1:49.96. The fifth-year senior also took second place in the 100 freestyle.

Slegers, a sophomore, also claimed an individual victory in the 100 freestyle, and came third in the 200 freestyle.

Kilgore set a pool record of 54.52 in the 100 butterfly. The fifth-year senior also added a second-place finish as the second leg of the 200 medley relay team, 200 butterfly, and 200 IM. Evans, who has had a standout freshman season, swam the anchor of the 400 freestyle relay and also touched first in the 100 backstroke.

On the diving boards, senior Madison Giglio and sophomore Kassie Gutierrez led the Rockets. Giglio finished first on the #m and runner-up on the 1M. Gutierrez finished third on both boards and set a PR score of 259.88 on the one-meter.
