PLU Women, Linfield Men Win in NWC Swim Dual

Meet Results

McMINNVILLE, Ore. - The Pacific Lutheran women and the Linfield men won by convincing scores in a Northwest Conference swim meet held Saturday afternoon at the Linfield College pool.

The Lute women improved to 2-1 in conference action with a resounding 147-55 victory over the hosts. With four swimmers each winning a pair of events, the Wildcats won the men's event, 120-84. With the loss, PLU falls to 2-1 in NWC dual meets.

Freshman Jessie Klauder had a big day for the Lute women, winning the 200 individual medley (2:17.30), the 100 freestyle (56.09) and the 500 freestyle (5:32.39). Other PLU women winning events were Tara Johnson in the 1000 freestyle (11:50.53), Dayna Blauvelt in the 50 freestyle (26.77), Jessie Donovan in the 100 backstroke (1:01.35) and Lacey Wear in the 100 breaststroke (1:13.70). In addition, the Lutes also won both the 200 medley relay (time not listed) and the 200 freestyle relay (1:46.12). In all, the Lutes won nine of the 11 events.

On the men's side of things, Linfield's Josh Parfitt, Kevin Caple, Dominic Rieniets and Yusuke Kobayashi each won a pair of events, and that foursome combined to hold off the Lutes to win the 200 freestyle relay. That gave the Wildcats wins in nine of the 11 events. Pacific Lutheran's victories came in the opening event, the 200 medley relay (1:44.77), and from freshman Jay Jones in the 100 breaststroke (1:01.02).

The Lutes return to action at 1 p.m. next Saturday when they host the Whitman Missionaries in another Northwest Conference dual meet.
