OXFORD, Ohio -- The Kenyon College Ladies swam their final dual meet of the season Saturday at Miami University. The Ladies won five events, but fell to the NCAA Division I RedHawks by a final score of 182.5-117.5.
The dual meet defeat was the first of the season for the Ladies, who saw their record slip to 5-1.

First-year Kira Bowling got the competition started for Kenyon by winning the 1,000-yard freestyle in a season-best time of 10:16.17. Miami won the next couple of events, but Kenyon got back in the win column when another first-year, Jennah Fadely, won the 100-yard breaststroke in a season-best and NCAA 'B' cut time of 1:02.09.
