Ho & Omdahl Petersen led Colonials vs. Mountaineers
MORGANTOWN, W. Va. - Andrea Ho and Stine Omdahl Petersen claimed two event wins apiece for GW women's swimming and diving, but West Virginia came out on top in the team race, 162-138, on a competitive afternoon at the Aquatic Center at Mylan Park.
In the Colonials' final dual meet of the season, Ho earned wins in both backstroke races, while Omdahl Petersen ruled in the breaststroke. Both swimmers, along with Meghan Burton and Becca Brown, were part of GW's win in the 200-yard medley relay in 1:44.44.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Ho won the 100 back in 56.45 seconds before claiming the 200 back in 2:03.35. The junior from Australia was also fourth in the 100 fly (:57.98).
- Omdahl Petersen was No. 1 in both the 100 breast (1:05.98) and 200 breast (2:21.76). The first-year from Norway took third in the 200 IM in 2:10.27, as well.
- Tali Lemcoff won the 1,000 free in 10:27.82 with teammate Andrea Moussier in second place (10:30.04).
- Jackie Torrez put together a pair of fantastic swims, just edged in both by 2019 NCAA qualifier Morgan Bullock. The senior from California finished the 200 fly in 2:03.90 before posting a time of 2:07.30 in the 200 IM.
- Isabela Patino scored in the 100 free (second, :52.80), 200 free (fourth, 1:55.39) and 100 fly (third, 57.83). The sophomore from California also teamed with Grace Olivardia, Brown and Burton on a second-place showing in the 400 free relay (3:32.32).
- Marissa Martin was runner-up in the 500 free (5:04.68) and also paced the Colonials in the 200 free with a third-place finish in 1:55.35.
- Individually, Burton took second in the 100 fly in 56.05 seconds and third in the 100 back in 57.57 seconds.
- On the diving side, Gabriella Arendes led GW on both the 3-meter (247.43) and 1-meter (240.45) boards.
UP NEXT: GW has a little more than two weeks to make final preparations for the A-10 Championships, which run Feb. 19-22 at the SPIRE Institute in Geneva, Ohio.
WATCH THIS: Hear from head coach Brian Thomas and Ho after the meet.
