Swim & Dive Completes Historic Win On Senior Day

Statesboro, Ga. --- The Georgia Southern Swim & Dive team defeated North Florida, 206-92, in back-to-back meets. The final meet of the season in Statesboro, the team also honored six seniors before the match took place. 

Of the 14 non-diving events, Georgia Southern had the top spot in all but one of them. The first swimming event started with a win from the 400 medley relay team of  Sally Ouzts, Logan Belanger, Jenna Maloy, and Abby Wenham with their winning time of 3:53:79.

Chiara Alberti won both the 50, 100, and 200 free events with her times of 24:28, 52:93, and 1:54:64 respectively. Maloy also showed out in the meet, winning both the 100 and 200 fly with her speedy times of both 57:57 and 2:07:07.

The Eagles also took the top two spots in the 100 back, with Allie Byerly swimming a top time of 59:38, her second-best of the season, with Ouzts just 0.80 behind in second place. The top two spots in the 100 breast also belonged to Georgia Southern as Ieva Evaltaite won the event, swimming a 1:06:00, with Sarah Luskus only 0.28 behind her fellow teammate. Luskus did take home a win, however, claiming the top spot in the 200 breast with her time of 2:23:02.

Although the Ospreys did not dive at the meet, Georgia Southern still had their chance to do so. Luckily for them, history was made on the diving board this afternoon. In the three-meter, Wells had the top score among her teammates at 284.85. Additionally the rest of the divers in Abby Ounsworth, McKinlee Taulbee, and Ava Mallon all set season highs on the event. In the one-meter, Wells had a phenomenal performance, setting both the school and pool record with her score of 314.40. This score beat the previous record of 302.15, set by Sara Rogers in 2018, by just over a whopping 12 points. As of now, the junior has both the one and three-meter diving records in school history.
