Loyola swim competes at Rice University

NEW ORLEANS – The Loyola University New Orleans men's and women's swim teams traveled to Houston, Texas, this weekend to compete in Rice University's Fall Splash meet. The Wolf Pack women faced off against two NCAA Division I programs in Rice and the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, and a familiar NCAA Division III team in St. Thomas (Texas), while the men just went head-to-head against St. Thomas. 
 

The Loyola men are now 3-0 in head-to-head competitions, dominating St. Thomas 341-197. The women placed fourth out of the five teams, also finishing ahead of St. Thomas. 
 

Action got started Friday evening, and the highlight of the day came in the 100-yard individual medley event when Monty Moore-Yetter set a school record with a time of 54.76. That record was eight years old, and it gives the senior two individual school records. Jack McNamara finished second in the same race with a personal best time of 55.64, and Carter Ory and Aaron Ervin placed third and eighth with times of 55.66 and 59.18, both personal records. 
 

Alexandre Perfettini and Sergio Martínez Sanz earned personal bests in the 400-yard IM, finishing in first (4:20.39) and third (4:23.15). Landon Crescioni took second in the same race (4:20.64). Charles Henderson snagged a personal record in the 100-yard freestyle, swimming a 53.16 to place 10th. McNamara and Ervin swam season bests in the 100-yard freestyle, placing first (49.05) and third (50.23). 

The women's team also saw a handful of season and personal bests on Friday.
 

Natalie McLaughlin and Jossalin Lavicka earned personal records in the 200-yard backstroke and 50-yard freestyle as a lead off of the 200-yard freestyle, respectively. McLaughlin placed 24th (2:41.96) in her backstroke race, while Lavicka swam a 26.35 to begin that relay event. Lavicka led the Wolf Pack in the 200-yard backstroke by placing 19th (2:19.98), followed by Emma Romero in 21st (2:21.65) and Cloe Solbach in 22nd (2:25.53) ahead of McLaughlin. 
 

Olivia Courville swam a personal best in the 100-yard IM with a 17th-place (1:19.23) effort, as Hartley Faucheux and Sarah Ford finished ahead in 11th (1:08.24) and 12th place (1:09.35). Abbigail Chemacki had a season best as well, placing 15th (5:02.08) in the 400-yard IM. 
 

The competition picked back up on Saturday with four more personal and season bests from the women's team. Romero placed 16th in the 100-yard backstroke with a personal best time of 1:06.37, and McLaughlin swam a personal best of 1:14.49 in the race in a 21st-place effort. Chemacki and Courville had season-best times in the 200-yard breaststroke and 50-yard freestyle, respectively. Chemacki placed 11th in her race with a time of 2:44.19, and Courville had a 32.98 time for 26th place in her event. 
 

On the men's side, Hayden Sutton, Perfettini and Logan Gary earned personal best times. Sutton swam a 1:55.43 in the 200-yard freestyle, as Sergio Martinez Sanz won the race with a time of 1:48.72. Perfettini was timed at 2:01.24 for second place in the 200-yard IM, finishing behind Moore-Yetter's 2:00.42 first-place effort. And finally, Gary's 57.35 placed him fourth in his 100-yard backstroke race, as Shay Brunmeier won with a time of 56.57. 
 

Dylan Chehebar and Henderson had season-best times in the 50-yard freestyle, placing seventh (23.38) and eighth (23.66), respectively. McNamara won that race with a time of 22.18.
