GAMBIER, Ohio -- This weekend, the John Carroll Women's Swimming & Diving traveled to a future North Coast Athletic Conference fellow for a strong test.

The Blue Streaks took part in the Kenyon Total Performance Invitational from Thursday through Saturday.

John Carroll enjoyed some nice swims, but finished in eighth place out of eight teams competing in the event despite some great energy on the pool deck.
