BRIGHAM YOUNG MEET RECAP: The Utah men's and women's swimming and diving teams hosted Brigham Young on Friday at Ute Natatorium. The women's team lost 124-117, but won 7 of 13 the swimming events. The Ute men fell 152-91.
Neringa Statkeviciute led the women by finishing first in two individual events. She won the 50 free with a time of 23.85 seconds, which places her fourth on the Utah all-time top-10 performances list. Statkeviciute also won the 100 free in 51.26 seconds, the second-best time on the Utah career charts.
The men were led by Evan Castro, who finished first in the 200 breast (2:07.65) and second in the 200 free (1:44.00). Freshman Cody Rempfer finished first in the 200 fly with a time of 1:53.88.
QUOTING COACH MIKE LITZINGER: "UNLV will be an interesting matchup for both of our squads. The men will see a team much like BYU strong in the sprints and relays. We will have to counter with our stroke events. Each women's team has their "go to" swimmers, and I expect the meet to be extremely competitive."
