ROCHESTER, Mich. - The Oakland Women's Swim and Dive team is prepared to compete against Eastern Michigan on Thursday, November 16th at 4:00 pm.
Following this past weekend, the Golden Grizzlies took on the Grand Valley State Lakers in a dual meet between both the men's and the women's teams resulting in a loss on both sides. Nevertheless, Oakland came out of the gate strong with multiple first-place finishes accumulating 15 top-three finishes total.
Notably, the Horizon League named Ellie Chalifoux and Harry Nicholson to Under Armour Athlete of the Week following their accomplishments at the GVSU competition. Chalifoux finished first in both the one-meter and three-meter diving contests this past weekend against GVSU. The senior still holds her spot at the top of the diving rankings for the Horizon League. Additionally, Nicholson took first place in three events against the Lakers including the 100 and 200-yard backstroke along with competing in a string of the victorious 400-medley relay.
This upcoming women's meet will be the last home competition before Oakland heads off to the Zippy Invitational in December for their last invite of the 2023 year.
