Meet Results

BIDDEFORD, Maine -- The University of New England Nor'easters opened the 2009-2010 season with a 161-54 victory over the Regis College Pride in a college women's swim meet Saturday afternoon at the Campus Center.

Sophomores Lizzie Wareham (Osterville, Mass.)  and Sara Shea (Peabody, Mass.) each won a pair of events to lead the Nor'easters. Wareham captured the 100-yard butterfly and 100-yard freestyle, while Shea took home victories in the 50 and 100-yard breaststroke events.

UNE senior Morgan Lawless (Kirkville, N.Y.), sophomore Allie Travnik (New London, Ill.) and first-year Rachel Hanley (Wiscasset, Maine) all won individual events and were part of UNE's winning 200-yard medlay relay entry. Individually, Lawless won the 50-yard fly, Travnik the 100-yard backstroke, and Hanley the 50-yard free.

First-year Christina Estrada (Bellingham, Mass.) won a pair of races for the Pride -- the 200-yard freestyle and 200-yard individual medley.

The Nor'easters are idle next week before returning to the pool Nov. 7 when they host UMass Dartmouth. Regis hosts a meet with Roger Williams University next Saturday (Oct. 31).
