WEST POINT, N.Y. – In a busy weekend at Crandall Pool, Army West Point earned a split set of results against Penn State after two days of action. The Black Knights earned a 170-125 win for the women's side and despite a strong showing from the men's team, Penn State claimed the men's win 169-130.

The two diving teams took to the water Thursday evening before the swimmers competed on Friday afternoon. The Black Knights tallied 15 first place finishes between the two teams with ten of those wins going to Army's women.

Penn State won both boards for the women, but freshman Hadley Futch claimed second place on both boards for Army's women. On the men's side, sophomore Jack McDaniel won the three-meter board and placed third on the one-meter board.

Women: Army 170, Penn State 125
The women kicked things off strong with a pair of top-three finishes in the first event of Friday's action as Angie McKane, Catriona Gilmore, Sydney Braeger, and Molly Webber combined for a 1:39.69 to take first place.

Webber went on to claim first place in the women's 200 free with a 1:45.98 – replacing the program record she set just one week prior at Boston University and logging the first sub-1:46.00 time in the event in Army women's swimming & diving history.

Layne Peterson and Jenna Hart went one-two for Army in the women's 200 back with times of 1:58.79 and 2:00.88 respectively.

Men: Penn State 169, Army 130
Johnny Crush earned a pair of individual wins and two relay second-place finishes for Army against the Nittany Lions. As the leadoff for the men's 200 medley relay he helped Army finish second with a 1:24.97 before he logged a 45.41 in the 100 back to finish first, put up a 1:44.23 in the 200 back to finish first, and led Army off in the 400 free relay to finish second with a 2:53.87.

Thomas Hadji and Daniel Verdolaga picked up two more first place finishes for Army over the course of the evening. Hadji earned first place in the men's 200 free with a 1:35.96 and Verdolaga touched the wall first in the men's 200 fly with a 1:48.84.
