Complete meet results

INDIANAPOLIS-  Both UIndy swimming and diving teams scored dual wins at Ruth Lilly Center Pool Friday as the women beat Saint Mary's, 145-93, and the Greyhound men raced past Wabash, 135-53.  UIndy honored its senior student-athletes at the meet, who competed in the final home competition of their careers.

Five different NCAA qualifying times were notched on the women's side Friday.  Ozlem Taskin had a pair of those, winning the 1000 freestyle in 10:35.15, then later taking the 100 backstroke with an NCAA B-cut time of 59.63.

Erica Smith, the reigning Great Lakes Intercollegiate Female Swimmer of the Week, also had two NCAA cut-times, etching a "B" time in the 200 individual medley before her impressive 100 butterfly time of 56.49, good for an "A" cut.

Isabela Tafur earned the fifth qualifying time with her B-cut in her 50 freestyle win 24.33.

The UIndy men added three NCAA cuts in its decisive win over Wabash.  Marios Panagi had two B-cut times Friday, winning the 50 freestyle (21.16) and 100 backstroke (51.75). Manuel Stiem was more than two full seconds under the NCAA automatic qualifying time in the 200 individual medley (1:51.09), finishing nearly 10 seconds ahead of the entire field. 

The Greyhounds will head to Grand Valley State Unviersity Saturday for a Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference dual meet beginning at 1:00 p.m.
