NASHVILLE, Tenn.—The Thundering Herd swimming and diving team fell to Vanderbilt University on Saturday with a score of 141.5-106.5 in Nashville.
"We had some strong performances today on the road against a tough Vanderbilt squad. We had several in-season best times with some details we can continue to improve on," Marshall head coach Ian Walsh said.
Junior Darby Coles had a stellar performance at the meet. She finished second in the 200-yard freestyle, first in the 50-yard freestyle and first in the 100-yard freestyle.
"Darby (Coles) had another great meet and her consistency has been exceptional so far this season," Walsh said. "In doing so, she came away with two individual wins. Heather (Sigmon) was another event winner for us that has been lights out in her 200 back the past two weekends. Things are really clicking in that event for her."
In the 200-yard freestyle relay, Darby Coles, senior Hannah Robins, freshman Or Tamir and senior Jordyn O'Dell finished in first place overall.
"Several others had in-season best performances and that's what we want to start moving towards this time of year. We're looking forward to having a weekend at home and will be preparing for our last two dual meets in a couple weeks vs Ohio University and James Madison University. "
