SWIMMERS REMAIN HOME SATURDAY AFTERNOON
West Chester remains home on Saturday for its second meet of the week after opening 2025 against Ivy-league member Penn on Wednesday night. Saturday's meet will serve as Senior Day for the Golden Rams as the Purple and Gold look to help their seniors have a memorable final home meet against the Violets of NYU.
NYU enters Saturday an impressive 4-1 on the year after a dominant 157-97 victory over Gettysburg last Saturday afternoon.
LAST TIME OUT
West Chester opened 2025 with a challenging meet against Penn on Wednesday night, and while the Golden Rams fell to the visiting Quakers, the Purple and Gold did see several strong swims throughout the evening.
Madelyn Koehle (State College, Pa./State College) was a double winner for West Chester, capturing the 100 and 200 breaststroke in times 1:06.08 and 2:18.52, respectively.
