Women's Swimming/Diving Team Falls At HYP, Turns Attention To 2017 Ivy League Championships
February 04, 2017 | Women's Swimming and Diving
COMPLETE RESULTS
The Princeton women's swimming and diving team completed its 2016-17 regular season Saturday with losses against both Yale and Harvard during the annual H-Y-P showdown weekend. However, head coach Susan Teeter knows that her squad, which had a handful of strong performances over the two-day meet, understands that the biggest goal still lies ahead.
"Our athletes swam and dove great," said Teeter, who announced her retirement at the end of this, her 33rd season, in December. "I'm really proud of their fight. It's never easy to have half of a team rested for their final competition of the year, while the other half is preparing for two weeks from now. We did a great job handling that, and we are excited to move forward for Ivies."
The host Yale Bulldogs claimed the Ivy League dual meet title with victories of 230-70 over Princeton and 223.5-76.5 over Harvard. The Crimson claimed a 187-113 win over the Tigers to complete the weekend.
Sophomore Kathryn Didion posted one of Princeton's best early performances, as she took second in the 100 breast in 1:04.50. Classmate Joanna Curry followed with a third-place finish in the 200 fly in 2:01.54, while junior tri-captain Maddy Veith took fourth in the 50 free in 23.47.
Freshman Christie Chong posted an early highlight during the second day of competition by taking fourth in the 200 back in 2:01.21, while Didion followed up her strong 100 with a second-place time of 2:17.90 in the 200 breast. Freshman Lauren Peterson went 4:52.83 to take fifth in the 500, while the freshman duo of Chong (2:05.83) and Shaelyn Choi (2:06.59) went 4-5 in the 200 IM.
Freshman Natasha MacManus had the top diving showing for Princeton over the weekend, as she took fifth on the 1-meter board with 266.55 points.
Princeton is now off until Feb. 15, when the Ivy League Championships begin in Providence, R.I. The meet begins with a pair of relays on Wednesday night, the first time the league championship meet will extend over four days.
