VMI Swim & Dive hosts Keydet Invite this weekend

LEXINGTON, Va. – VMI Swimming & Diving will welcome seven completely different applications to Goodall Pool this weekend for the annual Keydet Invite.
 
Beginning Friday and ending Sunday, the Keydets will host a plethora of gifted groups, together with Roanoke, Lynchburg, William Peace, Milligan, Southern Virginia, Bridgewater, and Columbia (SC). Each day will start with prelims at 10:30 a.m. and can conclude with finals at 5:30 p.m.
 
Last weekend, the VMI males cut up their slate by defeating Howard and falling to UMBC. The girls got here up shy of victory in opposition to the Bison and Retrievers.
 
Sophomore Stephen Russell added to his already spectacular resume with two victories, one within the 500 Free and one other within the 1,000 Free. This gave Russell his fifth and sixth first-place marks of the season. Also producing a first-place mark was freshman Ian Lutz within the 50 Free, his second-straight 50 Free win.
 
On the ladies’s aspect, the Keydets had 5 podium finishes, with freshman Carissa Witte highlighting the night with a victory within the 500 Free. On the boards, sophomore Isabelle Haer tallied a second-place end within the three-meter, together with third place within the one-meter.
