Behrman scored a 217.20 on the 1-meter board and a 197.46 on the 3-meter board. Junior Amy Kugelman finished second to Behrman in both events with scores of 205.68 and 186.75 in the 1-meter and 3-meter boards, respectively.

The Pirates' individual program opened in typical Pirate fashion with a victory in the 1000 Freestyle. Senior Allie Waggoner put up an equivalent time to her result from last night with a time of 10:17.27. Â Towards the end of the meet, Waggoner would go on to claim second place in the 500 Freestyle with a time of 5:03.92. The only person to finish ahead of her was Mandy Zajdzinski, who claimed her sole victory of the day with a time of 5:02.78.
In the 200 Freestyle, Natalie Heim claimed her fourth victory in the event this season with a time of 1:51.93. That time was over a second better than her time in the event from the prior night against Lehigh. Later on in the meet, Heim would also claim victory in the 100 Freestyle with a time of 52.19.
The remaining individual program saw the Pirates fall just short of victory in multiple events, despite strong swims from the Pirates. One of the most notable swims came in the 100 Breaststroke. That event saw sophomore Yosun Hacifazioglu narrowly miss out on a win by 0.11 seconds with a time of 1:08.10.
In the closing 200 Freestyle Relay, the Pirates claimed overall victory to end the meet on a high note. Lea Moeller, Naima Hazell, Mandy Zajdzinski and Natalie Heim combined for a time of 1:36.15.
What's Next
The Pirates will close out the opening half of the season when they return to Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, to compete in the Bucknell Invitational from November 22nd to 24th
