Bucknell Women at a Glance
• Bucknell visits Loyola (Md.) on Saturday for its last dual meet of the fall semester. The Bison host one more Invitational the first weekend of December.
• With a win over the Greyhounds Bucknell would improve to 4-2 on the season. Last weekend, the Bison went 2-1 at the Navy Quad Meet, defeating American (203-91) and Lafayette (226-74) while falling to the hosting Midshipmen (153-130). Bucknell's other win was over Holy Cross in the season-opening dual.
• Three Bison finished in first place among scored finishers at last week's quad meet: Emma Feld (200 backstroke), Virginia Hastings (500 freestyle) and Kyla Kelly (400 IM). The same three won events two weeks prior at the Bucknell Fall Invite.
• Meghan Catherwood is Bucknell's lone Patriot League weekly award winner so far. She took home PL Female Diver of the Week honors following the Fall Invite.
• Bucknell returned three All-Patriot League honorees this season: Abby Doss (2023 2nd Team, 2022 1st Team), Esme Hunter (2022 & 2023 2nd Team), Caroline McGann (2023 2nd Team).
• The Bison lost three-time All-Patriot League honoree and six-time Patriot League medalist Sabrina Vumbacco as well as three-time All-Patriot League honoree and one-time Patriot League medalist Catherine Craig to graduation last spring.
• Doss is Bucknell's lone school record holder on the roster. She set the 200 breaststroke standard at the 2021 Bucknell Invite.
• Bucknell finished the 2022-23 season 6-2 (5-2 PL) and placed third at the Patriot League Championships with 540.5 points. The Bison went on to take second at the ECAC Championships, and Catherwood competed at the 2023 NCAA Zone Diving Championships.
• Bucknell is 38-7 in duals since the start of the 2018-19 campaign.
• Seniors Hunter, Kayla Lichtner and Grace Kujawski are serving as team captains this season.
• Bucknell welcomed nine newcomers to the roster this season.
Scouting Loyola/Series History
• The Greyhounds are also coming off a 2-1 weekend in which they defeated American (194-106) and Colgate (210-88) while falling to William & Mary (186-76). Loyola also posted wins over Lehigh and Lafayette earlier in the season.
• Senior Lily Mead is two weeks removed from her record-setting performance at the Thomas Murphy Invitational, where she set meet records in the 200 backstroke, 200 breaststroke and 400 IM. Mead is Loyola's only returning All-Patriot League swimmer from last season.
• Loyola returned 37 of its 42 letterwinners from the 2022-23 campaign. The Greyhounds placed sixth at the 2022-23 Patriot League Championships with 246 points.
• Bucknell is 6-0 all-time when going head-to-head with Loyola. The Bison defeated the Greyhounds 174-126 in Lewisburg last October.

Bucknell returns to Kinney Natatorium to host its annual trials/finals invitational Dec. 1-3. After that, the Bison are off until returning January 13 for a dual meet at Army.
