Annapolis, Md. – The Bucknell women's swimming and diving team went 2-1 at a quadrangular meet hosted by Navy at Lejeune Hall on Saturday. Bucknell defeated American (200-97) and Lafayette (224-76) but fell to Navy (177-112).

Clara Renner won both of her events for the Bison, taking the 200-yard butterfly (2:02.13) and the 100 fly (56.02). The sophomore won the 200 fly by more than two seconds, and she took the 100 fly by just under four-tenths of a second.

Bucknell finished ahead of Lafayette in 14 of the 16 events and beat American in 12 events. Navy won 12 total events in the meet.

The Bison posted six top-three finishes and 15 top-five finishes in individual events. The Bison took fourth in the 200 medley relay and fifth in the 200 free relay.

Kelly Byrne and Sofia Burns each had a runner-up finish. Byrne swam the 1,000 free in 10:26.83, and Burns swam the 200 backstroke in 2:05.53. Both swimmers finished ahead of American and Lafayette in the two events. Byrne also added a third-place finish in the 500 free, swimming a time of 5:09.67.

Freshman Tori Castro finished third in the 50 free with a time of 24.25. Her time was 0.27 seconds off of the top time and she finished ahead of both American and Lafayette.

Sydney Jee took fourth in the 100 breaststroke (1:05.42) and 200 breast (2:23.39), finishing only behind Navy in both events. Sydney Dettmann had two top-five finishes. She took fourth in the 200 fly in 2:06.12 and fifth in the 200 back in (2:07.08).

Bucknell is back in Lewisburg for the Bucknell Invitational at Kinney Natatorium Nov. 21-23. This is a three-day trials/finals meet designed to emulate the postseason championships later in the season.
