IOWA CITY, Iowa - The Western Illinois swimming & diving program have just three meets left in the 2010-11 campaign.

Conor Ozog contributed a strong result in the 50-yard Breaststroke with his second place finish (29.47).

Perhaps the highlight of the night for the men was a second place finish in the 200-yard Freestyle Relay. Newly added swimmers Jack Killheffer, Cory Randolph and Rilott teamed up with Kurz to swim at a 1:31.14 clip.

Alayna Colley registered a time of 25.65 in the 50-yard Freestyle and finished in sixth place. Colley also competed in the 50-yard Backstroke where she grabbed a fifth place finish with her time of 29.35.

The 200-yard Freestyle Relay was also strong for the women as they finished fourth in 1:46.58. Allison Calewarts and Shawn Fitzpatrick joined colley and Schnaiter for that result.
