POUGHKEEPSIE, New York- The Marist men's swim and dive team triumphed two times in 24 hours, Saturday afternoon. The Red Foxes defeated Colgate in a home meet 158-98, remaining unbeaten on the 2024-25 season.
The Red Foxes improved to 5-0 overall and remained 3-0 in MAAC meets.
- "I couldn't have asked for a better complete performance today both in the pool and on the boards. I can see the women's confidence growing with each meet, as it's testament to the hard work they put in during the week. The men got a glimpse into the tough physical and mental grind that MAAC Championship brings by having a meet Friday and Saturday. It's great to end the weekend with victories, with a much-needed break from competition as we look forward to the Patriot Invite."
