Boise State's swimming team has started where it left off. Coach Kristin Hill's squad won 15 events en route to a 198-96 win over Idaho at the Boise West YMCA today.
Senior Stephanie North and freshman Jessica Bottelberghe each won three individual events and contributed to a relay win, as it seems Hill is beginning to reload at Boise State.
"It was a great first meet," said head coach Kristin Hill. "This was the first time most of the girls had raced since the summer at nationals or sectionals."
Bottelberghe captured titles in the 100 and 200-yard bastrokes and the 200-yard individual medley.
"We had a lot of freshmen step up in their first collegiate meet," Hill said. "It's always fun to see how they will respond in that situation, and our freshmen did it really well."
North won the 50, 100 and 200-yard freestyle events for Boise State. Sophomore Ciera Cortney won the one-meter diving final and was second in the three-meter event. Junior Lexi Pfeiffer joined Cortney on the podium with a career-best 225.10, good for third.
Sophomores Chelsea Miller and Rachel Heaney won in the 200-yard breaststroke and 200 butterfly and All-American Amber Boucher won the 100 fly.
Boise State hosts New Mexico and Seattle next weekend at the West Y. Friday'smeet starts at 6:30 while the meet with Seattle begins at 11:30 Saturday morning. Come out and watch the exciting Broncos!
