The No. 14 Texas A&M women’s swimming and diving team suffered its first dual-meet loss of the season to No. 5 Texas, 169-128, at the Lee and Joe Jamail Texas Swimming Center.
Led by junior Danielle Townsend, the Aggies were able to win six of the 18 events in Austin. Townsend won both the 100 and 200-yard freestyle events.
“Danielle had two really outstanding swims,” said A&M coach Steve Bultman. “She swam that 200 right after a close finish in the 400 medley relay. She came back quickly and swam right at her lifetime best.”
The Aggie divers also swept both springboard events. Sophomores Rosie Whiting and Alida DiPlacido finished first and second in the one-meter event while DiPlacido won the three-meter dive.
The Aggies will travel to Baton Rouge, La., to take on Louisiana State University on Friday.
