@BonniesWSwim Performs Well at Spire Institute

The St. Bonaventure women's swimming and Diving team performed well Saturday afternoon at the Spire Institute in Geneva, Ohio. 

The Bonnies swam against fellow A-10 member school's Saint Louis, La Salle and Duquesne at the site of the A-10 Championship in February. 

The lone St. Bonaventure win came when Liz Malone won the 200-yd butterfly. The senior took home the top position with a final time of 2:09.60. Malone also finished third overall in the 100-yd butterfly with a time of 59.63. 

Other notable performances for the Bonnies were Maria Rocchi and Alyssa Levac who both set season-best times competing in the 200-yd breastroke. Rocchi finished third in the event with a time of 2:26.05, Levac finishing in sixth place with a final time of 2:28.45.

Tanja Kirmse placed third overall in the 200-yd freestyle. Kirmse finished with a final time of 2:55.65. 

In the 1 meter diving event, Brittany Hart finished second with a final dive score of 215.50, finishing just four points out of first place. 

Coach Carlson was very pleased with her team's performance saying "Today was a long meet with a tough format, but it was great to see people swim and dive so well, especially at the A-10 Championship pool,"

Carlson added "A meet like this is really beneficial to see where we are at within the conference, but come Monday, we are back to work."

Next Up: 

The Bonnies be back in the pool Saturday, Nov. 7th when they travel to Cleveland State for a 1 P.M. meet against the Vikings.
