INDIANAPOLIS – The UIndy Greyhounds stepped up on the blocks for the second day in a row, this time competing against the Cincinnati Bearcats on Friday afternoon. The men closed the margin more than recent years, but still lost the meet 166.5–133.5. The women went down to the wire and took a second consecutive win on a final score of 158-142. Friday marks the first time that the Greyhounds have taken down Cincinnati during head coach Jason Hite's tenure.

"The difference between this year and last year is night and day," stated senior Darian Murray. "We've come into this season ready as ever, and we'll continue making our statement."

Edda Skoric, Mariia Rezhylo and Marizel van Jaarsveld all maintained a perfect record through the first two meets by collecting four wins each versus the Bearcats. Van Jaarsveld collected first-place finishes in the women's 400 medley relay (3:51.07), 100 breast (1:05.42), 100 fly (56.91) and the 200 IM (2:04.93). Rezhylo threw down some excellent times as well in the 400 medley relay, 50 free (23.76), 200 breast (2:23.57) and the 200 free relay (1:35.05). Skoric dominated her races and finished first in the 400 medley relay, 100 back (57.58), 200 back (2:03.99) and the 200 free relay.

Victor Antonon contained the most wins on the men's side, three overall at the end of the meet. The junior sprinter from Spain took home the 50 free (21.01), 100 free (46.05) and was the anchor on the winning 200 free relay (1:23.65). Devin Ramsey kicked off his collegiate career with two wins of his own, coming on both the one-meter (314.92) and three-meter (312.37) springboards. Kael Yorke was the was the only other Greyhound on the men's side to win multiple events, claiming the 100 fly (50.66) and the 200 free relay.

"Last year we got handled during this meet, so it was great to see our teams more competitive and even come out with a win," recapped Jason Hite. "We qualified four of our divers on the men's team today for the NCAA Pre-Qualification meet in March, but we'll continue to have our eyes on the goal moving forward."
