Denison suffered a 166-128 loss to Kenyon College from the Trumbull Aquatics Center in Granville, Ohio. That snapped a five-year winning streak against the Ladies in the annual dual meet clash.
The Big Red posted four event victories on Saturday and sophomore Carolyn Kane had a hand in three of those wins. Kane won the 50 freestyle and the 100 freestyle and swam the anchor on the winning 200 free relay team. In the 50 free, Kane hit the wall in 23.52. In the 200 free, she bested teammate Ashley Yearwood with a time of 51.79. Yearwood touched in 53.33 seconds. Both of Kane's swims were NCAA provisional qualifying times.
In the 200 free relay, Kane hit the water after 50-yard swims by Rima Jurgis, Yearwood and Maggie Pyett. Their time of 1:35.45 topped Kenyon by one second.
Denison's other event win came in the 200 butterfly as first-year Halli Garza touched in 2:06.46 for the victory and a 'B' cut time. In the diving events, Sarah Lopez finished second in the 1-meter and 3-meter boards with scores of 259.05 and 239.18, respectively.
The Big Red also added provisional qualifying times in the 200 breaststroke and the 200 medley relay. In the 200 breast, Marissa Bednarek placed third in 2:23.84. She also swam on the 200 medley relay with Jurgis, Yearwood and Kane. The foursome touched in 1:45.92.
Denison will return to action on Dec. 4 for the three-day Miami Invitational in Oxford, Ohio.
