Early Sweeps Negate Victorious Relay As JCU Women Fall At Oberlin

Melissa Fillmore picked up a relay win and an individual win in her first meet back after studying overseas last semester
John Carroll won the opening relay of the night in convincing fashion, but big point sweeps by Oberlin in the 1000 and 50 Free set momentum rolling the other way in what became a 149-82 Yeowomen victory over the Blue Streaks Friday night at the Robert K. Carr Pool.

Results

The evening began on a very promising note as Julia Adams, Melissa Fillmore, Rachel Libertin and Rachel Mizner posted a winning time of 4:17.58 in the 400 Medley Relay. The quartet's margin of victory was over ten seconds.

But Oberlin would outscore JCU by a 43-14 count over the next three events to take a commanding lead it would never relinquish.

The Blue Streaks picked up wins in the 200 Back and 200 Breast. Adams (2:17.55) and teammate Maggie Donoghue (2:20.86) placed first and second in the backstroke event, while Fillmore (2:41.13)touched first in the breaststroke.
