NEW Rochelle, NY - The Iona College men's and women's swimming and diving team returned to action Wednesday night at the Hynes Pool, hosting Atlantic 10 power Fordham University for the first time in three years.

MEET SUMMARY

The Fordham women swam away with a decisive 180-107 victory and pulled away in the last half of the men's meet for a 152-118 win. The pair of losses drops the Iona women's season mark to 7-4 and the men fall to 6-4.

Coaches COMMENTS

"The crowd tonight was loud and excited and there was a lot of energy on both sides of the pool," commented Coach Nick Cavataro. "We were aggressive in every race, which is great to see, but we didn't finish the way we will need to on Saturday and in the MAAC Championships in February. We will be better."

Up Next

 The team has one more regular season meet remaining which will take place on Saturday January 29th, at Hynes Center Pool when they host MAAC rival Manhattan College on Senior Day starting at 1PM.
