"We had a great meet with some ups and downs. The Lafayette vs. Lehigh rivalry always brings out a team spirit that we don't always see in every regular dual meet. It helps us swim new school records, new personal best times, and motivates us to train harder to do even better at our season-ending meets," said Lafayette head coach James Dailey. "Both teams' top five lists have never been faster and the number of new performances added to the All-Time Top 10 is never higher."

The Leopards will have some time off for training before they compete at home against Rider on Saturday, Jan. 13 at 1 p.m.
