Potsdam, NY – Six student-athletes won multiple individual events for the Clarkson University Swimming & Diving team as the Golden Knights swept their tri-meet against SUNY New Paltz and SUNY Potsdam Tuesday afternoon at Fuller Pool.

The Golden Knights' men beat the Bears (204-18) and SUNY New Paltz (189-47) handily, while the Clarkson women also came up just short of two 100-point plus wins, beating Potsdam (163-52) by triple digits and SUNY New Paltz (157-76) by high double figures. Clarkson's final dual meet of the season comes in another 12 days when the team faces the Bears once again.

Clarkson's women picked up their first two victories of the year thanks to a solid all-around effort. Evelyn Vieira won both boards, picking up first-place points in the 1-meter dive (202.50) and in the 3-meter dive (208.15). Senior Gabriela McSwieney started the individual races with a win in the 800 freestyle (10:25.95) and then hit the pad first in the 100 freestyle (1:05.42).

Classmate Fiona Reilly won two specialty events, taking the 200 individual medley (2:37.46) and 100 breaststroke (1:24.16). Fellow freshman Aurora Zary also won an event, picking up first-place points in the 100 backstroke (1:13.09).

The Golden Knights' women also won both of the relays, as Zary, Reilly, Dani McDonald, and McSwieney combining for 2:14.61 in the 200 medley relay and Hurff, Kirsten Iles, Katelyn Otis, and Ava Lamontagne putting together a time of 2:04.74 in the 200 freestyle relay.
