Vanderbilt falls brief in tri-meet in opposition to Indiana State and Illinois – The Vanderbilt Hustler

Vanderbilt Swimming fell 260-87 to Indiana State and 262-85 in opposition to Illinois in a tri-meet at Vigo County Aquatic Center in Terre Haute, Indiana, on Nov. 6-7. Sophomore Aubrey Hall captured two particular person victories over the weekend, bringing her to a team-lead with 12 particular person victories. It was the second consecutive weekend the workforce competed earlier than a two-week break heading into its last meet of the autumn season.    

“It’s a quick turnaround going into a two-day meet,” head coach Jeremy Organ mentioned. “It’s something we don’t get to do very often, but I think swimming on back-to-back weekends gives us an opportunity to prepare for our midseason meet in a couple of weeks as well as the chance to swim all four relays over two days. Splitting the events up also allows us to put greater focus on each individual event.”  

Vanderbilt’s A workforce began the weekend with a third-place end within the 400-yard medley relay, with Illinois and Indiana State putting first and second, respectively.   

Ellie Butler stored the momentum going with a second-place end within the 200-yard butterfly with a time of two:05.14. She holds the second-best time on the workforce after making her collegiate debut in the occasion.

She was adopted by Quinlan Hinerfeld, Grace Ciaramitaro and Sadie Suppiger, who completed seventh, eighth and ninth, respectively.  

Bailey Ratzburg missed the rostrum with a fourth-place end within the 200-yard particular person medley with a time of two:08.30. The ‘Dores ended the night time with their A workforce putting sixth within the 200-yard freestyle relay.  

Vanderbilt’s A workforce earned one other podium end with a third-place end result within the 200-yard medley relay. Hall gained her second occasion of the weekend within the 100-yard backstroke. Junior Melissa Cowen led the workforce within the 200-yard breaststroke with a third-place end adopted by sophomore Emily Constable in fifth. The workforce struggled in 200-yard freestyle, as it didn’t rating a top-ten end. Raztburg as soon as once more led the workforce within the particular person medley, securing seventh place. Kate Hientz led Vanderbilt within the 100-yard butterfly with a fifth-place end, with Butler ending seventh.
