Scranton, Pa. – Marywood University got a taste of Atlantic East Conference swimming and diving competition with three of four victories in a tri-match Saturday. The Pacers women swept Immaculata University (201-34) and Marymount University (135-125), and the men split with a win over the Mighty Macs (126-45) and a loss to the Saints (129-91).

Christine Llewellyn won three individual races and a relay to lead the Pacers. Llewellyn claimed the 200 free in 2:04.04. She took first in both sprints and distance, winning the 50 free in 26.97 seconds and 500 free in 5:51.36

Marywood's women's 200 medley relay of Llewellyn, Maia Clasby, Cholish and Hannah Darmofal was victorious with a time of 2:02.04. The Pacers' men's quartet of Bobby Wishart, Kaiden Estep, Kyle Calamia and Jason Lee had the top spot in the same event.
