On Saturday, Amherst College will travel to NESCAC rival Williams College. As of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/denison-keeps-top-spots-in-cscaa-division-iii-poll\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"the latest CSCAA poll (opens in a new tab)\">the latest CSCAA poll<\/a> the Williams women sit at number six while the Amherst women are ranked 17th.  The Amherst men are 14th, above the 17th ranked Williams team.<\/p><p>In 2018 the Eph women won by a score of 181 to 117. Amherst&#8217;s lone wins came from diver <strong>Lindsay&nbsp;Ruderman<\/strong> in one meter diving and <strong>Bridgitte Kwong<\/strong> in the 100 backstroke. Kwong has gotten her senior season off to a nice start. She opened December as the NESCAC Performer of the Week after posting a 200 IM already faster than she went at the Williams dual last year.<\/p><p>Last year Williams relied on senior <strong>Emma Waddell<\/strong> to win two individual events and play a role in both relays. While the team may be weaker in the sprints and 100 fly this year, range-y freestyler and All-American <strong>Laura Westphal<\/strong> is now a sophomore who could develop into Waddell&#8217;s role. Her classmate <strong>Molly Craig<\/strong> was also a double-event winner at this dual meet last year, and fellow then-freshman <strong>Gwyneth Malloy <\/strong>added a win of her own.<\/p><p>Kwong should go head to head with Williams junior <strong>Caroline Conforti<\/strong> in the backstrokes, and could give Craig a race in the 200 IM. While not quite on the level of Williams junior <strong>Caroline White<\/strong>, <strong>Nina Fitzgerald<\/strong> developed nicely for the Mammoths in her freshman year and should score some helpful breaststroke points this weekend. <\/p><p>The men&#8217;s meet went the opposite way in 2018, with the Amherst men setting three home pool records en route to a 136-101 victory over the Williams Ephs.<\/p><p>Williams returns distance talent <strong>Andrew Trunsky<\/strong> who won both the 500 and 1000 at this meet last year. His teammate <strong>Jamie&nbsp;Lovette&nbsp;<\/strong>can also stretch across freestyle distances.<\/p><p>Amherst has a deep breaststroke crew, led by junior <strong>Sean&nbsp;Mebust<\/strong> and first year <strong>Gary&nbsp;Sun.<\/strong> <strong>Craig&nbsp;Smith&nbsp;<\/strong>is the Mammoth&#8217;s leading backstroker, among the conference&#8217;s fastest so far this year.<\/p><p>Through the fall semester, the teams appear most evenly matched in the butterfly events, with <strong>Jack&nbsp;Koravos,&nbsp;Austin&nbsp;Lee,<\/strong> and <strong>Tristan&nbsp;So<\/strong> leading the way for Amherst and <strong>David&nbsp;Pearcy,&nbsp;Zeb&nbsp;Hart<\/strong>, and <strong>Lucca&nbsp;Delcompare<\/strong> posting Williams&#8217; top times.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of Division III&#8217;s biggest rivalry dual meets will kick off the first weekend of action in 2019.
