Beavers Fall Short Against Washington State

Beavers ready for second meet of the weekend tomorrow
CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Beavers fell in their duel meet against Washington State by a final score of 148-114.
Oregon State started out the meet hot with their A (Felicia Anderson, Fernanda Rodriguez, Arianna Letrari, and Kristina Schneider) and B (Lindsay Swail, Cali Rowland, Jacquie Price, and Amanda Hoejberg) relay teams taking first and second in the 200 Medley Relay to start out the meet. Three events later Swail, F Anderson, and Brooke Hofmann finished 1-2-3 in the 100 back.
"We needed to show up as a team, and I think we did a good job of that." Beaver head coach Jennifer Buffin said. "When we show up and are focused on each other and the team we perform better as a whole. We put together our plan and I think everybody executed that plan."
Kristina Schneider and Cali Rowland set the pace for the Beavers on the evening with each of them freshmen setting a pair of season high times. Schneider finished with a final time of 1:53.43 in the 200 free and 52.42 in the 100 free while Rowland finished with times of 1:05.79 and 2:12.77 in the 100 breast and 200 IM respectively.
"I'm pretty stoked about my times, but I think I'm more proud of how the team competed," Rowland said. "We've been training really hard all week for both of these meets, and we came out and swam hard with not a lot of rest."
"Kristina (Schneider) has been working a lot all year," Buffin said. "Compound being in a foreign country with the experience of being a freshman in college and I think Kristina is handling all of the things that are thrown her way very well. She's still got some work, but overall I think she came out and competed with a couple of really talented sprinters."
Arianna Letrari finished with a trio of heat wins, finishing in first in the 100 and 200 fly individually as well as being a part of the first place 200 medley relay team.
"I'm really excited about my races, and really I'm proud of the whole team," Letrari said. "Everyone was swimming well. We obviously wanted to win today but we will learn off of it."
The Beavers have a short turn around and will be back in the pool tomorrow for a dual meet with the University of Idaho. The meet is set for 10 A.M. at Osborn Aquatic Center.
"We've talked about (the double) all week and have been preparing to handle it better than the last time we faced the same situation," Buffin said. "At UCLA I think we came out as individuals and not focused on being a team. Tomorrow I really want us to bring the energy and compete for the entire meet."
