Utes open 2016-17 season with a win.
SALT LAKE CITY - Utah women's swimming won ten events this Friday night as they captured a 157-96 win against Oregon State in the Ute Natatorium.
"I was really pleased," said Utah head coach Joe Dykstra. "I think that we cleaned some stuff up from the relay meet last week. We had a lot of faster splits than we did last week, even though we had a really intense week of training. I thought the focus and attention to detail was really pretty strong across the board. My favorite thing about today was you are seeing this team come together as a competitive unit. We are more cohesive and supportive of one another than we have been in the past few years."
Jordan Anderson and Stina Colleou won two events each for the Utes. Anderson captured the 200 fly (2:05.16) as well as the 500 free, touching in at 5:07.70. Colleou took first in the 100 breast (1:04.29) and the 200 breast (2:18.48).
Kat Wickham took first in the 1,000 free with a time of 10:33.79. Sarah Lott won the 200 free (1:52.51) and later took second in the 100 free (51.94). Also in the 100 free, Dorien Butter claimed the top spot touching in at 51.39. She took second in the 200 free (1:52.94).
In the 50 free, Kristine Pataray beat out fellow teammate, Darby Wayner by six-hundredths seconds. Pataray touched in at 24.01 with Wayner close behind (24.07). Wayner would then take first in the 100 fly (56.32).
In relay action, the team of Megan Kawaguchi, Mariah Gassaway, Kristine Pataray and Gillian St.John took first in the 200 medley relay with a time of 1:43.82. Kawaguchi also took second in the 100 back (57.74).
Cassidy Stein (1,000 free and 200 back), Mallori Allen (100 back and 200 back), Mariah Gassaway (100 breast), Mck\Kenna Gassaway (100 breast) and Isabella Kearns (200 fly) all had top-five finishes in their respected events.
In expedition for the 50 free, Jenna Marsh touched in at 24.45 with McKenna King in at 25.35. Also in expedition, Anderson touched in at 2:08.64 of the 200 IM. The top time in the event was 2:11.52.
The Utes are back in action this week, Oct. 6-8, when they will compete in both the Florida Gulf Coast Invitational and the Intermountain Shootout at Grand Junction, Colo.
