HAMILTON – MG King won three events to lead Colgate to a 189-109 victory over Marist in head-to-head action Saturday afternoon at Lineberry Natatorium.
The Raiders celebrated their final home meet of the semester by winning 14 events, led by three from King and two each from Audrey Collins, and Ellie Sundin. Brooke Garretson and Jordan Hurt secured one win apiece to go with a pair of relay triumphs on the day.
Colgate with the win secured its first victory over Marist since the 2004-05 season. The Raiders have faced the Red Foxes four times since 2019-20, closing the gap each year since falling to the Red Foxes 190-92 four years ago. Last year, Colgate came up just short 157-143 before prevailing this year with Saturday’s dominant victory.
“It was great to see both teams bring a lot of energy to the meet today,” said head coach Ed Pretre. “We did a much better job of keeping focused and executing our race strategies. It was a perfect meet before we suit up next week at the Brown invite.”
