SPRINGFIELD, OH - In the final dual meet of the fall portion of the 2024-25 season for the Wittenberg Men's and Women's Swimming & Diving teams, the Tigers recorded another split decision. Wittenberg's women posted another impressive victory, improving to 7-0 in duals with a 150-140 decision against the Engineers, while the Tiger men dropped their competition by a 169-72 score.

While it was the final dual meet of the first half of the season, Wittenberg's student-athletes are certainly not slowing down as they head into the holidays. After the Thanksgiving break, Wittenberg heads to Wooster for a three-day invitational hosted by the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) rival Scots on December 5, 6, and 7.

Against Rose-Hulman, Wittenberg's women took first-place finishes in two relays and five individual events. The key to the victory was depth, as Tiger swimmers regularly popped up on the results sheet in top three across most races and the diving events.

First-place finishers for Wittenberg's women were recorded by:

  • 200-yard medley relay: Lilly Cook (Rensselaer, IN/Rensselaer Central), Sophie Paskiet (Toledo, OH/St. Ursula), Teagan O'Connor (Fort Wayne, OH/Carroll), Shania Stone (Cincinnati, OH/Princeton)
  • 200-yard freestyle: McKenna Clark (Waynesville, OH/Carroll)
  • 100-yard breaststroke: Sophie Paskiet
