Western Tames ThunderWolves in 1st Dual of Season

GUNNISON, Colo.  In its first dual meet of the season, Western Colorado swimming doubled up visiting Colorado State Pueblo, 183-88, Thursday afternoon, taking first place in 12 of 15 events at the Paul Wright Natatorium.

Nine different swimmers won an individual event, but Maggie Hansel and Anna Jorstad were double winners for Western.

Hansel hit the pads first in the 200-yard freestyle, with a time of 1 minute, 56.90 seconds that was five seconds ahead of the second-place swimmer.

In the back half of the event schedule Hansel added her second victory, claiming the 500 freestyle event in 5:19.71 for a 13-second victory.

Jorstad bookended the two events around the mid-meet break, first winning the 50 free in 25.01 seconds and after the break, taking first in the 100 free with a time of 55.35 seconds.

Other individual winners at the meet were Morgan Nielsen in the 1,000 free (11:14.98); Sarah Krise in the 100 backstroke (1:01.11); Adessa Talbot in the 200 butterfly with a time (2:13.18) that was just one second off the pool record (2:12.10); Lily Rosh in the 200 backstroke (2:13.95); Kayla Knifong in the 200 breaststroke (2:29.60); Amayah Warren in the 100 butterfly (1:01.12); and Emma Linscombe in the 200 individual medley (2:15.53).

Peyton Keggins and Addisyn Murray helped Hansel's win in the 200 free produce Western's lone 1-2-3 finish during the meet.

Closing out the dual was a first-place finish from the quartet of Jorstad, Krise, Keggins and Hansel in the 400 free relay (3:40.10).
