Strong Training Trip, Impressive Freshman Wins Nearly Power Princeton To Upset At Miami
November 04, 2016 | Women's Swimming and Diving
FULL RESULTS
Princeton head coach Susan Teeter didn't need the five extra points to convince her that the Tigers completed a highly productive fall training trip this week.
Sure, they would have been nice, but Teeter knows Princeton will return to campus with a strong foundation to build its 2016-17 season on.
"We had a great team effort on the boards and in the water today," Teeter said after Princeton nearly pulled off a season-opening upset in a 151-147 road loss at Miami. "We're very happy with our performance today, and for this entire camp."
Knowing that Princeton had graduated a significant number of major scorers at the Ivy Championships, the coaching staff was excited to see just what its highly-touted freshman class had to offer. The early results were quite impressive; Shaelyn Choi won both the 100 (1:05.75) and 200 breast (2:19.96), while classmates Gianna Garcia (100 back, 55.36) and Christie Chong (200 IM, 2:04.06) added individual wins for the Tigers. Garcia also led off a winning 200 medley relay, where she joined Olivia Chan, Isabel Reis and Maddy Veith to win in 1:44.04.
The Tigers also got a distance win from sophomore Monica McGrath, who topped the field by nearly six seconds to win the 1000 in 10:15.27.
Princeton also had an impressive diving performance in the debut of head diving coach Drew Livingston. The Tigers finished 2-3-4 on both the 1- and 3-meter boards, with freshman Natasha MacManus claiming second (1M, 260.70; 3M, 283.50) in both events.
The Princeton men and women will both be in competition at DeNunzio Pool next weekend when they host the annual Big Al Open. All three sessions will be streamed live on the Ivy League Digital Network.
