LEWISTON, Maine — Colby College came away with the most points on both the men’s and women’s sides (200-78 and 174-120, respectively) in a dual swimming and diving meet on Saturday at Tarbell Pool, but the host Bobcats posted a high number of strong individual performances to take away from the meet.

Bates sophomore Katelyn Drake (Hudson, Ohio) won the 200-yard backstroke in a blistering 2:11.37. Senior co-captain Annie Barton (Holladay, Utah) took first in the 100-yard butterfly (1:02.77)

Junior Kelsey Lamdin (Brunswick, Maine) scored 277.80 points at 1 meter, outscoring sophomore Annaliese Rudis (257.75) and senior co-captain Tasha Rosener (230.65). The four-time All-American scored 283.15 points in the 3-meter, while Rudis (252.05) edged Rosener (251.55) for second.
