Williamson Breaks Another Backstroke Record at Wright State

    Dayton, Ohio -- Youngstown State freshman Ashley Williamson broke a school record in the backstroke for the second straight meet as the Penguins opened up a busy weekend at Wright State on Friday.
    After breaking the 200 back record a week ago, the native of Scotland took the top spot in YSU history in the 100 back by leading off the 400 medley relay with a time of 59.58.
    Freshman Caitlin Davis also earned her first career victory by placing first in 1-meter diving.
    Olivia Arnold earned second-place finishes in the 1,000 and 500 freestyles and added a third-place finish in the 200 IM. Megan Rupe was second in the 100 free, Williamson was second in the 100 back, Julia Darling was second in the 100 breast and Sara Weigel was second in the 3-meter.
    The Penguins will compete in a double dual tomorrow against Butler and Illinois State.
