The women scored 702 points in Buffalo's Alumni Arena to finish just ahead of rival Miami, which scored 657 points. The Bobcats never trailed despite a comeback by Miami on the third day of competition. The Bobcats got on the board early by winning five of the first six events. Our freshman class was very impressive, and it really was a entire team effort, from freshmen to seniors, to pull off the win.
Any points are good and it was definitely a total team effort.
Bresser, however, rallied her team in the next event. A victory in the 200 backstroke was her 20 th career MAC event championship. Bresser, Madonia, Kessler, van Selm and Gotschall were honored on the MAC first-team. Van Selm also was honored as the conference's Most Outstanding Swimmer, and Bresser was honored as the Most Outstanding Senior. Werner said after winning the championship last year, many opponents had been aiming to beat Ohio.
