Gettysburg (5-0, 3-0 CC) won its 14th-consecutive dual meet with the top times in eight events on Saturday. The Bullets opened by grabbing the top-two positions in the 400 medley relay with the team of freshmen Sam Foote (Unionville, Conn.\/Farmington), Marie Gingher (Boalsburg, Pa.\/State College), and Alyssa Pepper (Livingston, N.J.\/Livingston) and sophomore Ellie Houser (Fort Washington, Pa.\/Upper Dublin) winning the event in 4:20.36.<\/p>\n
Junior Caroline Coolidge (West Hartford, Conn.\/Kingswood-Oxford), sophomore Cooper Kearns (West Hartford, Conn.\/Miss Porter's School), and freshman Lea Candelmo (Oakland, N.J.\/Immaculate Heart Academy) each won two events on the afternoon. Coolidge touched the wall first both the 200 free (2:03.27) and the 200 back (2:18.92), while Kearns took top honors in the 1000 free (10:58.71) and 200 fly (2:19.33). Candelmo began her day with an exciting race against Bryn Mawr's Meredith Davis in the 200 IM as the Bullet first-year won the event by six-hundredths of a second with a time of 2:20.34. Candelmo paced a 1-2-3 Gettysburg finish in the 500 free with a mark of 5:26.24.<\/p>\n
Davis picked up a win for Bryn Mawr in the 100 free (56.85), edging Gingher (57.02) and Houser (57.17). Houser won the 50 free (26.16) just ahead of Gingher (26.33) earlier in the day.<\/p>\n
Senior Cheryl Olechnowicz (Alexandria, Va.\/West Potomac) finished runner-up in both the 1000 free (11:38.88) and the 500 free (5:41.48), while freshman Sara Bias (Denville, N.J.\/Morris Knolls) took second place in both the 200 free (2:08.30) and 200 fly (2:27.14).<\/p>\n
