Hurricanes Pick Up Two Dual Meet Wins

CORAL GABLES, Fla. — The University of Miami women’s swimming & diving team picked up two dual meet wins Saturday at the Whitten University Center Pool, earning victories over Boston College and FAU.

“The team responded very well today,” head swimming coach Andy Kershaw said. “They executed better races and really owned it. They took care of business the way they should have.”

Miami’s 200-yard medley relay opened the action with an early win, finishing just ahead of Boston College with a time of 1:45.59. Senior Roxanne Yu, freshman Coco Hull, freshman Zorry Mason and sophomore Sydney Knapp delivered the winning time.

Junior Manon Viguier (1:52.06) and sophomore Carmen San Nicolas (1:53.48) took the top-two finishes in the 200-yard freestyle while Hull picked up a win in the 50-yard freestyle (23.97) in her signature sprint event.

Mason continued her stretch of fall dominance with a time of 2:04.32 in the 200-yard IM and a winning time of 55.90 in the 100-yard backstroke, while Yu took another top finish, this one in the 100-yard butterfly (56.76).

The Hurricanes’ 400-yard freestyle relay team, comprised of Maria Artigas Fernandez, senior Sydney Story, San Nicolas and Knapp, finished in a second-place time of 3:34.48.
