Oswego, NY - In their first dual meet of the season the SUNY Oneonta women's swimming and diving squad was bested by their SUNYAC foes from Oswego with a combined score of 133-106.

Some highlights for the women though happened in the 200 yard medley relay when sophomore Erin Clun, senior Kelly Carey (Suffern/Suffern), senior Nicole Lapinksi and senior Ally Federman (Delmar/Bethlehem) were victorious out swimming their Laker opponents  with a time of 1:56.16 more than three-seconds ahead of the Laker runner-ups.  Later Carey secured another win in the 200 yard individual medley touching the wall with a time of 2:20.69 edging her opponent from Oswego by just .15 seconds.  Lappinski turned in a win of her own as she was victorious in the 100 yard butterfly with a time of 1:03.97 more than .5 seconds ahead of the trailer from the Lakers.

Later on in the meet the 100 yard backstroke was contested and Clune got a victory for the Red Dragons as she triumphed with a score of 1:03.06 with her teammate freshmen Kayla Keddy (Queensbury/Queensbury) right on her heels taking the runner-up position under three-seconds behind.
