NEW HAVEN, Conn. —  The Dartmouth women’s swimming and diving team was defeated by both Yale and Penn in their return to Ivy League action at Yale’s Kiphuth Exhibition Pool. Diving events took place on Friday and swimming followed on Saturday.

“Illness meant we had a very small squad for this competition and while we can’t control the cards that were dealt, we can control how we play them,” said head coach Milana Socha. “Zoe Moon and Julianne Jones both walked away with exciting wins against Penn. Alexa Kalish stepped up as the only diver able to compete and rose to that challenge.”

In Friday’s diving action, Kalish placed sixth in the 1-meter dive with a score of 222.65 and seventh on the 3-meter board at 231.15.

Moon’s win over Penn came in the 200 backstroke as the junior beat all Quakers to the wall with a time of 2:09.24. Moon was also second against Penn in 100 backstroke with an even 1:00.00.

Jones, who set a pool record at Bates in her last outing, topped Penn in the 200 IM at 2:05.81. She was second against Penn in the 100 breast (1:06.48) and 200 breast (2:22.42).

Lindsey Drumm, Rachel Zhang, Christina Cianciolo and Sophie Wiener placed fourth overall and second against Penn in the 200 freestyle relay with a time of 1:41.50.

Dartmouth fell by a score of 272-25 to Yale and 231-62 to Penn.

The Big Green return home to host the two-day Tate Ramsden Invitational, which will pit Dartmouth against UMass and Northeastern, beginning Friday, Jan. 20 at 5 p.m. The program will honor its lone senior, Cianciolo, prior to the start of Saturday’s action.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. — The Dartmouth men’s swimming and diving team battled Yale and Penn, eventually falling to both squads, in their return to Ivy League competition at Yale’s Kiphuth Exhibition Pool. Diving events kicked off the weekend on Friday and swimming followed on Saturday.

“We had a few really impressive swims after a challenging week of training,” head coach Milana Socha said. “Tim Park and Alex Ye’s event wins were well fought for, going 1-2-3 in the 200 free against Penn was electric, and the men racked up multiple other event wins against Penn. We are learning that we have a choice in our attitude and how we show up – that choice can make all the difference.”

Park placed first in the 200 free with a time of 1:38.61, defeating both Yale and Penn. Joe Moll (1:41.46)  and Colton Rasmussen (1:41.62)  also outswam Penn. Ye’s first-place finish came in the 200 IM at 1:52.31 for a win over the two Ivy League foes.

Rasmussen added a win over Penn in the 100 free, coming in at 46.56 seconds. Moll also defeated the Quakers in the 200 back with a time of 1:49.38. Yan Dvoretskiy’s performance in the 500 free (4:35.04) represented another victory over Penn.

Eddy Chen was third, second to both Yale and Penn in the 100 breast and 200 breast with times of 56.55 and 2:03.79 respectively.

On Friday, Everett Tai placed sixth to lead Dartmouth in the 1-meter dive with a score of 266.50 and received a 289.85 mark on the 3-meter board for a seventh-place finish.

Dartmouth fell by a score of 183-116 to Penn and 232-68 to Yale.

Dartmouth is set to face UMass in the Tate Ramsden Invitational next weekend. The two-day event begins Friday, Jan. 20 and the program will honor a trio of seniors – Moll, Tim Cushman and Connor Bishop – prior to the start of Saturday’s events.
