Liberty's girls swim team suffered its second loss of the season, defeated by Easton 60-42 last Thursday.
Hurricane sophomore, Jocelyn Baker, said, "We were watching the score pretty much the whole time. Right from the beginning, we were behind, but we were trying to win as many races as we could to keep up."
Baker won the 500 free in 5:28.26. Easton's Jordan Miers placed second, and Liberty's Shannon Hogan came in third.
"It was close between second and third," Baker said.
Baker, Anita Kundu, Madison Sauers, and Kayla Drago won the last meet of the day in the 400 free relay in 3:54.49.
"I'd rather go first because you can kind of determine how the rest of the race is going to go by how hard you push it," said Baker.
Second place winners for the Hurricanes included Kayla Drago in the 200 free and the 100 free, Kundu in the 50 free, Rachel Steiner in diving, and Emily Cecchini in the 100 butterfly.
Third place finishes were won by Baker in the 200 free, Grace Walters in the 200 IM and the 100 butterfly, Sauers in the 50 free, Brenna McCornac in diving, Jenna Harper in the 100 free, and Cecchini in the 100 backstroke.
Baker said, "We had a lot of tough meets right at the beginning of the season. Hopefully, we can get a lot more wins than we started with."
