On Friday, the San Diego State women defeated the University of San Diego women in a dual meet featuring off-distance events with a score of 81-67.
Only eight events were contested on the day: the 200 medley relay, 150 freestyle, 150 butterfly, 150 backstroke, 150 breaststroke, 400 freestyle, 300 IM, and 200 free relay.
The SDSU women swept 1-2-3 in all of the individual events minus the 400 free, dominating the field throughout the session.
The 200 medley relay was pretty clear cut, with SDSU posting a 1-2 finish. The ‘D’ squad of Liv Peebles (26.74), Roni Black (29.46), Charlotte Sevin (25.96), and Alyssa Schiller (23.27) led from start to finish over the A team of Reka Nyiradi (27.78), Kaydence Bispo (30.82), Allison Mann (24.93), and Julia Reed (24.27), 1:45.43 to 1:47.80.
USD’s team of Penelope Leonard (28.41), Elise Sullivan (31.28), Ava Delaney (26.19), and Ally Diehl (24.70) hit the wall in 1:50.31 for third.
SDSU sophomore Allison Mann won the 150 free by just under a second at 1:21.03, as teammates junior Nyiradi (1:22.01) and freshman Melanie Quinto (1:23.10) followed right behind. Nyiradi led through the first 100 by a few tenths, but Mann blasted home in 27.93 to Nyiradi’s 28.98 to grab a decisive victory.
Mann tripled up with two more wins, with the first coming in the 150 fly. She took an early lead, holding just under a two-second cushion at the 100. Her teammate, Sevin, charged home in 31.52 to Mann’s 32.95 to nearly clip her at the finish, ultimately falling 0.55 short at 1:31.58 to Mann’s 1:31.03. Freshman Sierra Tallman notched 1:32.83 for third.
Mann logged 4:04.32 to win the 400 free over USD freshman Sydney Wilson. She swam stroke for stroke with Wilson until the final 50, where she split 29.14 to Wilson’s 29.81 to win by just under a second. Mann’s sophomore teammate Bispo was not far behind at 4:05.46. Bispo had the lead after the first 50 and stayed within striking distance the rest of the way, lurking just a few tenths behind the leaders.
The 150 back saw senior Abby Storm clear the field from the very first stroke with the only sub-1:30 outing of 1:29.79. The sophomore duo of Peebles (1:31.07), who helped the medley relay win earlier in the session, and Alex Downing (1:32.98) were the next quickest to the wall.
Senior Moa Bergdahl and the aforementioned Black were in a tight battle in the 150 breast, with Black taking the lead by four tenths at the 50 turn before taking a two-tenth lead at the 100. Bergdahl ultimately closed three tenths swifter to take the win at 1:40.07, with Black touching the wall at 1:40.63 for runner-up status. Sophomore Elisa Branca took a comfortable third in a time of 1:44.02.
Nyiradi secured the final individual win of the meet in the 300 IM with a time of 3:13.31, well clear of the field. Black (3:19.62) and Branca (3:19.72) were in a deadlocked battle for second and third for most of the race.
The Aztecs ended the day with a sweep of the 200 free relay, with the ‘A’ team of Nyiradi (24.95), Bispo (23.75), Mann (23.35), and Reed (24.46) stopping the clock at 1:36.51 to seal the victory. The ‘D’ team of Peebles (24.72), Black (24.93), Sevin (24.82), and Schiller (23.27) finished at 1:37.74, while the ‘B’ team of Grace Mering (25.89), Quinto (24.04), Amber Janky (24.44), and Masen Karsten (24.51) hit the wall in 1:38.88.
