Penguins Announce 2005-06 Slate, Three Juniors Named Captains
Youngstown -- The Youngstown State
swimming and diving team will play
host to six home meets before
competing in the Horizon League
Championship in Cleveland in late
February, head coach Matt Anderson
announced.
Anderson also named junior diver Cortney Harless and junior
swimmers Becky Bertuzzi and Kim
Hanley team captains for the 2005-06
campaign that begins Friday at
Bowling Green's Tom Stubbs Relays.
The Penguins will open the home portion of their schedule at
the Beeghly Natatorium with duals
against Cansius and Marshall on Oct.
28 and Oct. 29. After the divers
travel to Clarion for a diving
invitational on Oct. 30, the squads
will play host to Horizon League
rival Cleveland State on Nov. 9. YSU
will then travel to Akron twice,
Radford, Notre Dame and St. Francis
(Pa.) before taking on Denison on
Jan. 28 and California (Pa.) on Feb.
3 at home. The full squad will wrap
up its regular season with a
double-dual against Cleveland State
and Illinois-Chicago in Cleveland on
Feb. 4, and the divers will compete
in the YSU Diving Invitational on
Feb. 12. The conference meet will be
hosted by Cleveland State from Feb.
22 to Feb. 25.
Harless, Bertuzzi and Hanley represent the only upperclassmen
remaining from a squad that lost 10
seniors from last year. Harless, a
Steubenville native, competed her
freshman year and rejoined the team
midway through last season to add
depth to the diving corps. Hanley
was one of the team's top
breaststrokers as a freshman and
added distance freestyle to her
arsenal last season. Bertuzzi, a
native of Warren, returns as the
squad's top swimmer in the 100- and
200-yard freestyle. |
