Women’s Swimming Downed by Purchase

Written by Andrew Capitelli (SJC-LI Sports Information)

Purchase, NY| The St. Joseph's College (L.I.) women's swimming team dropped a 100-79 decision to SUNY Purchase in a Skyline Conference meet on the road on Friday evening.

In a tightly contested first event—the 200 yard medley relay—the team of Aileen Baker, Kim Mazza, Gabrielle Zollo and Julianne Garvey came up just short finishing less than one second behind Purchase's foursome with a time of 2:11.08.

Zollo would register SJC's first first-place finish of the afternoon when she posted a 27.85 in the 50 yard free.

Marissa Palmeri would later take first in the 100 yard breaststroke with a time of 1:26.87, while Corinne Araneo placed second (1:42.14).

The Golden Eagles return to action on Saturday, November 5 when they host both St. Joseph's (Brkln) and the College of New Rochelle in a double-duel at 1:00 PM.
