Colorado State Press Release<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Colorado State Rams celebrated Senior Day on Saturday with one of the best gifts a team can get, earning a 185-113 victory over New Mexico. With the victory, CSU improved to 5-3 in dual meets, continuing its best start to a season since 2009-10.<\/p>\n
Despite dropping the meet\u2019s first three events, CSU responded with four consecutive first-place finishes, winning the 200 Freestyle (Elizabeth Prasse, 1:56.37), 100 Backstroke (Jessica Shepard, 56.94), 100 Breaststroke (Cristina Bassani, 1:05.54) and 200 Butterfly (Megan Llyod, 2:08.91).<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew New Mexico would be tough,\u201d Head Coach Christopher Woodard said. \u201cKunio (Kono, New Mexico’s head coach) always has his girls ready, and they came out and blew the doors off that 200 Medley Relay and it certainly put us back on our heels a little bit. Then they followed it up with a great 1000 (Freestyle). I\u2019m sure there was every reason to be worried, but I think our kids rebounded very ably.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Rams increased their lead with big swims in their stroke events, sweeping the 200 Backstroke, 200 Breaststroke and 200 IM. CSU also locked the Lobos out of first and second in the 100 Backstroke, 100 Breaststroke and 100 Freestyle.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey just continue to build momentum and confidence,\u201d Woodard said of his team. \u201cI think what\u2019s most impressive in swimming any conference opponent is when you can go 1-2 in an event, or 1-2-3. That\u2019s a huge accomplishment, and it was coming from all people in all places. I\u2019m very pleased.\u201d<\/p>\n
The diving squad also had a strong afternoon, earning themselves six season bests and seven NCAA Zones qualifying scores. Melissa Bollig, a transfer from New Mexico, qualified for the first time with season bests in both events. The junior contributed to the victory with a third- and fourth-place finish in 1- and 3-Meter, respectively.<\/p>\n
Fresh off her honor as Mountain West Diver of the Week, Ariana Milone set her second-highest score of the season on 3-Meter boards (304.20) and a lifetime best on the 1-Meter springboard (294.08). Milone\u2019s 1-Meter performance is the second-highest score in CSU history, and was just shy of breaking Erica Torgrude\u2019s record of 298.73, set in 1996. Milone earned 13 total points for the Rams on the day.<\/p>\n
\u201cAriana went up against a girl from New Mexico (Megan Harper) who is really good and has been very good for a long time,\u201d head diving coach Kevin Witt said. \u201cIt was only a four-point difference between first and second place on 3-Meter. There was just one little thing that if we could take it back she probably would have won. She came back after that and won 1-Meter, and it was a career best and only a couple points off of our school record. She did great; I\u2019m very happy.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Rams celebrated their Senior Day, sending off four of their top athletes \u2013 Yana Garvey, Madeline Mastrup, Ailey Ruger and Maxelise Thorn. The seniors won\u2019t be out of the pool quite yet, however. CSU will compete in three more dual meets before the Mountain West Championships (Feb. 19-22 in San Antonio, Texas).<\/p>\n
Considering the team\u2019s steady improvement, the Rams should be in a good spot heading into the Championships.<\/p>\n
\u201cDual-meet wins aren\u2019t always indicative of what a team can do at conference because it\u2019s not all about depth, it\u2019s a lot about your top end and scoring points, and how quick your relays are,\u201d Woodard said. \u201cI think I do have a lot more confidence in my girls\u2019 ability to execute race strategy and rebound from any disappointing performances, and that\u2019s really key in a four-day meet. I know we will see an even tougher New Mexico at conference, so we will take the win now and prepare for February.\u201d<\/p>\n
With Saturday\u2019s victory, CSU improved to 31-2 all-time against New Mexico, and avenged its loss to the Lobos from a year ago, the Rams\u2019 first since 1993-94.<\/p>\n
The Rams will return to the pool Saturday, facing Border War rival Wyoming in Laramie.<\/p>\n
