Freshmen Lead Huskers to Wins over Fresno State and Nevada-Reno

RENO, Nev., January 12. THE Nebraska swimming and diving team won pair of dual meets Friday afternoon in Reno, Nev. in a double dual meet. The Huskers defeated Nevada 75-65, and also defeated Fresno State with a score of 129-11. Nevada also defeated Fresno State 119-21.

In swimming, a pair of freshmen led the Huskers to their two wins as Kate Wheeler and Bailey Ingles each won a pair of events. Wheeler snagged her two wins in freestyle events, touching the wall in a time of 5:05.83 in the 500-yard freestyle and finishing the 1000-yard freestyle race in a time of 10:23.55. Ingles put points on the board for the Huskers with her pair of wins in butterfly events, finishing the 100-yard fly in a time of 58.17 and the 200-yard fly in 2:08.79. Ingles also swam a leg in the 200-yard medley relay, winning the event for the Huskers along with senior Angie Matheu and freshmen Michelle Criss and Mallory Keathley.

In the diving well, sophomore Amie Buoy won a pair of events with scores of 291.95 on the three-meter springboard and 254.30 on the one-meter springboard.

The Huskers' head coach Pablo Morales was pleased with today's results.
"Their resilience has been pretty impressive," said Morales, "Nevada came out to Lincoln last year and won, so it was nice to see us go to Reno and return the favor."

Nevada won six of the 16 events in the meet led by double winners Leticia Cunha and Sarabeth Schweitzwer. Cunha won the 100 and 200-yard breaststroke while Schweitzer swam to first place finishes in the 100 and 200-yard backstroke events. Schweitzer was also second in the 200-yard IM.

Alyssa Chin was the other individual winner placing first in the 200-yard IM. Chin also placed second in the 100 and 200-yard freestyle events.

Charlene Rigdon, Larissa Cadag, Amy Murphy, and Larissa Van Der Linde teamed up to win the 400-yard freestyle relay. Rigdon also took second in the 100 and 200-yard backstroke events while Van Der Linde also had two second place finishes in the 50-yard freestyle and 100-yard butterfly.

Fresno State dropped to 2-4 overall on the year including 0-2 in Western Athletic competition with both losses coming to Nevada. The Pack recorded a 186-109 victory over the Bulldogs Oct. 18 in Fresno. The Wolf Pack improved to 10-1 overall and 2-0 in the conference while Nebraska boosted its season ledger to 5-1.

Bulldog junior Melissa Johnson accounted for the squad's two top-three finishes at the meet, touching the wall first in the 50 (24.83) and 100 free (53.56). Johnson sports a team-leading eight top-three finishes for the 2003-04 campaign.
