Buckley Earns Conference Honor

Lizzy Buckley became the second swimmer R-MC swimmer this year to grab the ODAC Swimmer of the Week distinction on Monday. The award follows Lizzy's performances at the Hollins meet over the weekend, in which she won two individual events and took part in a first place relay (that swam exhibition). Individually, Lizzy won the 50 freestyle in 26.30 and then made her debut in the 200 fly, winning the race in 2:26.57. She also teamed up with fellow sophomores Virginia Mauch, Ellie Shea, and Sarah Almond to finish first in the 200 freestyle relay to close out the meet.

R-MC's Lizzy Buckley Named ODAC Swimmer of the Week

Next up for the swimmers is a 1 pm matchup against Bridgewater this Saturday, January 16th. With just two more home dual meets before the conference championships, we're looking to sharpen up the performances and improve upon some season bests/seed times.
