W. Swimming

The Harvard women's swimming team (4-1 Ivy, 8-3 overall) continued its winning ways this weekend with a convincing 83-57 win over Cornell.

By all accounts the team was carefully fighting any overconfidence stemming from resounding wins over Yale, two weeks ago, and Princeton last week.

On the other hand, the swimmers were carefully fucling their competitive fires because they were intent on avenging last year's loss to the Big Red, the only defeat to Cornell in the history of Harvard women's swimming.

"A lot of upperclassmen were really happy because Cornell beat Harvard for the first time ever last year, and we wanted to correct that," junior Alison Greis said.

If revenge was the theme of the meet, then freshman Schauwecker was the vigilable of the month. Schauwecker won the 200-meter freestyle, the 200-meter IM, the 200-meter breastoke and was on the victorious 400-meter freestyle relay team.

The fine performances did not stop with Schauwecker. Freshman Molly Clark set a pool record in the 100-meter breastoke, and Harvard's virtually invincible pair of divers; Jennifer Goldberg and Shannon Byrd continued their dominance of the Ivy League by finishing first and second once again.

But the Big Red did not roll over for the Crimson; instead it fought back once to within four points.

"We were worried when it way 55-51, but from there we crushed them," Schauwecker said. Indeed Cornell scored only six points in the second half of the meet.

The swimmers will carry, their considerable momentum to Philadelphia next week for their last dual meet of the season with UPenn.
