Junior Molly Bohannon (Westbrook, Conn.) added 13 points for her first place finish in the 200 Butterfly, second in the 500 Freestyle, and was the third leg of the 200 Medley relay.

UNE's Lizzie Wareham swam a stellar day for the Nor'easters, claiming first place in the 50 Freestyle and 100 Freestyle by almost a second in each race. Wareham also took first in the 50 Butterfly.

Sharks head coach Mindy Williams said, "We have raced UNE during the past several years at the Regis Invitational and the New England Championship, but we have never matched-up in a dual meet. I was pleased to see how competitive the meet was for both sides."

The Sharks return to action on Saturday, November 19th at 1:00 when they host Wellesley College at the Holmes Sports Center.
