DENTON, Texas - Five TCU freshmen combined to win seven events as the Horned Frogs' women's swimming and diving team defeated Metroplex-rival North Texas 163-139 Thursday night at the UNT Student Recreation Center. The Lady Frogs' sixth-straight victory raised the squad's overall record to 6-1.
TCU freshmen Jennifer Antisdale (Sammamish, Wash./Skyline) and Sarah Murphy (Cincinnati, Ohio/Madeira), as well as junior Erin Irons (Midland, Texas/Midland) won two races apiece to pace the Frogs.
Antisdale took first in the 100-yard butterfly (1:00.14) and 200 freestyle (1:55.94), while Murphy claimed wins in the 200 IM (2:19.76) and 1000 free and Irons, the C-USA Swimmer of the Week, added victories in the 50 and 500 free.
Diver Kelly Seely (Friendswood, Texas/Clear Brook) joined men's diver Kelly McCain as the second TCU frosh in as many meets to qualify for the NCAA Zone D diving. Seely's tally of 261.07 was also good for first place in the meet.
