BOSTON – The UConn women's swimming and diving team split Friday's meet at Boston College by defeating BC, 152 – 147, and losing to No. 19 Duke, 166 – 128.
Freshman Mia Galat had a career-day for the Huskies by capturing a victory in the 200 Free. Her time of 1:52.08 was a career-best. The Andover, Mass. native also notched a third place finish in the 100 Fly.
"Tonight was a good road win vs an improved BC team," said head coach Chris Maiello. "It's always difficult to win on the road and our team was down for most of the meet. Credit to our women who stayed the course and raced tough all afternoon. Our girls kept their composure and when we were up by one point going into the last individual event our IM swimmers did a great job of putting the meet out of reach. The 1-2-3 finish against BC in the 200 IM sealed the win and allowed us to swim loose in the last relay."
Ryan Dulaney posted a pair of season-bests in the 500 and 1000 Free. The Huskies All-Conference long distance performer raced to runner-up finish in the 1000 with a mark of 10:17.24 and followed it up with a 5:02.50 in the 500.
Lena Redisch followed suit in the 500 Free with a season-best time of 5:06.54.
Georgia Apostolu secured a runner-up finish in the 100 Back with a time of 56.82.
Senior Megan Wenman captured a season-best 2:09.19 in the 200 IM.
UConn has a quick turnaround and will conclude their weekend in Boston with a meet at Boston University on Saturday at 1:30 p.m.
