Redhawks down the Eagles


Miami Redhawks had no problem beating conference rival Eastern Michigan.  The score at the end of Saturday the 6th was 193.5 to 95.5.  Senior leader Megan Brunn was the star of the meet capturing three individual wins as well as the 200 medley relay.  Brunn won the 100 and 200 breast along with the 400 individual medley. 
Other multi event winners included sophomore Bekka Westrick winning the 50 and 100 freestyle, sophomore Leah Thronton won the 100 and 200 backstroke events, sophomore Maegan O’Connor placed first in the 100 and 500 butterfly as freshmen diver Nikki Craft took both diving events.  All in all the younger crowd of sophomores and freshmen are proving to be outstanding competitors.
This meet is a great test for the team every season as Eastern Michigan always is a contender for the conference meet champion.  For the lady redhawks to take so many first place wins, including the relays, really shows their depth and team character.
