For the first time in over a month, the Pace men's and women's swimming & diving teams will be in action as they host Bentley inside the Goldstein Fitness Center on Senior Day.
 
In their last meets on Dec. 11, both teams posted victories over the College of Staten Island.
 
The women's team was highlighted by three victories apiece from graduate student Annabel Keppel-Palmer (Kent, England/Maidstone Grammar School) and freshman Katherine Kline (Salisbury Mills, N.Y./Washingtonville).
 
After jointly winning the 200-medley relay, Keppel-Palmer went on to win the 100-back and 200-IM, while Kline was victorious in the 200- and 100-free.

Senior diver Amy Calandro (Eastchester, N.Y./Eastchester) also impressed against the Dolphins, winning both the three-meter and one-meter dives.

On the men's side, senior diver Patrick Dwyer (Tomkins Cove, N.Y./North Rockland) broke his own school record in the one-meter and came in tops in the three-meter as well.

Freshman Robert Gehman (Reinholds, Pa./Cocalico Senior) also came up big for the Setters with a pair of first-place marks in the 200-free and the 100-breast.
