LEXINGTON, Va. – VMI Women's Swimming & Diving dropped its final home meet of the season at the hands of Washington & Lee Friday evening at Goodall Pool in the VMI Aquatic Center.
The Keydets ended their home slate with a 186-73 loss to the Generals. VMI honored two seniors –
Noelle Tong and
Valerie Tonnu – prior to tonight's meet.
VMI had a couple of first-place finishes from
Lacy Delzell, the first being in the 200 Free (1:58.70) and the second in the 200 Back (2:11.92).
Mackenzie Byrne also scored gold in the 50 Free (24.81).
Tong tallied a pair of second-place marks in her final collegiate home meet, scoring points in the 100 Back (1:00.70) and 100 Free (54.60).
Both relay squads claimed second place, including the 200 Medley Relay team with Tong, Byrne,
Parker Belle Fogle, and
Emerson Cosner (1:50.98), along with the 200 Free Relay team with Byrne, Tong, Delzell, and Cosner (1:41.18).
Despite the points not counting towards the team score, the Keydet divers took advantage of extra practice ahead of the America East Championships in late February.
Isabelle Haer continued to produce big scores, earning 256.65 points in the three-meter and 251.48 in the one-meter to lead VMI.
