Utah Tech closed out its two-meet trip to The Palouse with one event win in the Trailblazers’ WAC dual at Idaho on Saturday at the Vandal Aquatic Club in Moscow.
Fresh off her school-record breaking effort in the 1650-yard free a night earlier at Washington State, Cera Mallory claimed victory in the 500 free by more than six seconds with a time of 5:05.42.
Mallory (1:54.97) also placed third in the 200 free earlier in the day, just behind teammate Natalia Zmierczak, who touched the wall in second at 1:54.62. Zmierczak went on to take runner-up honors later in the 200 free with a time of 53.51.
In all, Utah Tech came away with six runner-up finishes on the day, including Allie Hayes in the 200 IM (2:10.66), Abby Hill in the 100 fly (58.66), and Mary Sims Cross in the 100 back (58.51).
The Trailblazers then closed the day with a second place finish in the 400 free relay as the team of Mallory, Dani Cannon, Zmierczak and Mandy Farnum combined to clock a 3:31.65.
Utah Tech wraps up its 2024-25 dual meet season next weekend with a two-day home WAC dual against Northern Arizona at the HPC Pool. Friday’s opening day of events will begin at 5 p.m. (MT), while Saturday’s slate of races will start at 11 a.m. (MT).
