DAVIDSON, N.C. -- After spending the past three weekends on the road, the Davidson Wildcat swimming and diving teams will return to the comforts of Cannon Natatorium as they host eight teams, including seven from the CCSA, in a full weekend's competition at the 2007 Davidson Invitational.
The Wildcats will welcome CCSA members the College of Charleston, Florida A&M, Gardner-Webb, Georgia Southern, Howard, the University of North Florida and Radford in addition to Old Dominion of the CAA.
The Wildcat women (3-3, 1-1) will return to action after a 83.5-121.5 loss at Gardner-Webb last weekend, snapping a three-match winning streak.
Having a tremendous rookie season thus far, Lindsey Martin was once again a highlight on the women's side, besting her own school record with a winning time of 23.71 in the 50 free to remain undefeated. Her previous best of 23.75 was on Oct. 27 at Wingate. The school record holder in the 100 free, Martin also won that event with a time of 52.85 at Gardner-Webb.
Fellow classmate Anna Stringfield continued her impressive rookie campaign with a win in the 400 individual medley behind a time of 4:35.20, and the Wildcat women's relay team of freshmen Emily Castle, Jessica Delgehausen and Alexa Richardson and sophomore Caitlin Sheetz finished first in the 200 freestyle relay with a time of 1:41.48.
Junior Merritt Peele won three individual titles to lead the Wildcat men (1-4, 1-1) to their first dual-meet victory, 120-82, over Gardner-Webb, along with wins from sophomore Miller Williams, junior Scott Frantz and senior Will Broughton.
Peele picked up wins in the 100, 200 and 1000 freestyle events. He finished first in the 100 with a time of 48.50, placed first with a season-high time of 1:43.82 in the 200, and outtouched the field in 9:53.10 in the 1000.
Williams won the 100 fly in a time of 52.47, while Frantz was first in the 100 back with a season-best time of 52.44. Broughton placed first in the 500 free in a time of 4:51.65.
Frantz grouped with senior Fiete Stegger, Williams and junior Andrew Carlson for a first-place finish in the 200 medley relay with a time of 1:36.95, while the 'Cats team of Frantz, junior Miguel Rodriguez and freshmen Tennant Brastow and Patrick Whitman turned in the top time in the 200 free relay (1:29.07).
