CHARLOTTE — The Davidson women's swimming and diving team opened the season Friday night with a four-team meet at Queens University.
And the Wildcats turned in a number of notable swims — including from freshmen making their college debuts — in a meet that will finalize its scoring with diving Saturday in Cannon Pool, while the Davidson men swim against Queens.
Through 11 events, Davidson leads UNC-Asheville 128-76 and Georgia Southern 149-55 in head-to-head scoring, while trailing Queens, the five-time defending NCAA Division II national champions, 138-66.
The Wildcats posted two overall wins Friday as junior Sarah Helen Shepherd set the pace in the 200-yard breaststroke (2:24.69), and freshman Shelby Stanley won the 200 individual medley (2:05.85).
Sophomore Hannah Gould touched the wall second in the 200 breast (2:26.94), while Stanley placed second in the 200 butterfly (2:08.47), and freshman Kate Pottle was second in the 200 freestyle (1:57.01).
Shepherd added third-place finishes in the 200 IM (2:07) and the 200 back (2:07.24), while sophomore Siena Senn was third in the 500 free (5:15.56), freshman Abby Francis took third in the 50 free (24.34) and freshman Marissa Lassell placed third in the 200 free (1:57.10).
Fourth-place finishes came from Francis in the 1,000 free (52.88) and in the 400 medley relay (4:00.49).
