Thanks to four individual wins and one relay victory on Sunday, the Colorado College women's swimming and diving team captured the team title at its own CC Classic for the second consecutive year.

Following up an outstanding Saturday in the pool, junior Jio Chang and freshmen Key Macfarland and Maddie Amick each won an individual race and joined freshman Kerren Matthews to win the 800-yard freestyle relay race.
 
Chang, who won two races on Saturday, captured the 100 butterfly event on Sunday, while Macfarland won the 500 freestyle and Amick the 200 backstroke. Sophomore Emily Erickson finished first in the 200 breaststroke, just ahead of fellow sophomore Dervla Moore-Frederick, who placed second.

Following Macfarland in the 500 freestyle were Matthews (3rd), Amick (4th) and Mashek (5th).
 
Mashek, senior Chaney Skiling and junior Alma Jukic swam on the 200 medley and 800 freestyle relay teams that finished third. Erickson joined them on the 200 medley team, while sophomore Emileigh Rafidi anchored the 800 freestyle squad.
 
On the men's side, the Tigers finished second, their best finish since a second-place result in 2013.

CC's 800 freestyle relay team of junior Eric Dallesasse, sophomore Walker Martin and freshmen Cole and Cade Thumann posted the best finish of the day, placing second.
 
Dallesasse finished fifth in the 100 butterfly, seventh in the 200 IM and joined senior Ethan Schick, sophomore Baker Casagrande and freshman Julian Frerichs to place fourth in the 200 medley relay.
 
Frerichs finished fourth in the 200 backstroke, just ahead of junior Ethan Hanson, while Cole Thumann and freshman Reese Gawronski placed fifth in the 200 IM and 500 freestyle, respectively.
 
Junior Michael Heinonen posted a seventh-place finish in the 200 breaststroke and fourth place in the 800 freestyle relay race with Hanson, Gawronski and senior Johannes Mansson.
