NEW YORK -- For the first time this season the Columbia women's swim and dive team will hit the road, facing Yale on Friday, Nov. 12 at 5:00 P.M. in New Haven, Connecticut.
The Lions opened their season last weekend with a pair of dual-meets held at Percy Uris Natatorium. Columbia claimed victory over Penn in the season-opener, 158-142, before falling to Harvard the following day (115.5-179.5).
Sophomore Allerga Walker paced Columbia in both meets, recording the most individual points of any Lion on each day. Also making an immediate impact in their first collegiate outings were classmates Aziza Ganihanova, who won the 200 back event on Friday, and diver Alice Diakova who claimed first in both the one and three meter events against Penn.
