Logan Twedt (Hastings, Minn.), Brian Travers (Chicago, Ill.) and Sean Gibson (Chicago, Ill.) all collected two first-place finishes as SMU gave the Scots all they could handle in a 67-54 season-opening dual-meet loss.

Macalester had a little easier time against the SMU women, cruising to a 107-75 victory.

"Our guys had an awesome performance," said SMU coach Eric Lindquist of his men's team's effort. "They won every race they entered — I guess we should have entered them in more events."

Twedt took home first-place honors in the 400- and 800-meter freestyle events, clocking times of 4:46.09 and (9:45.24, respectively, while Travers won the 200-meter freestyle (2:21.01) and the 100-meter backstroke (1:13.82). Gibson, meanwhile, dominated the sprints, winning the 50- and 100-meter freestyle events with times of 25.66 and 57.42, respectively.

On the women's side, Heidi Andre (Fairbanks, Alaska) won the 400-meter freestyle in a time of 5:24.74 and Becca Grube (Appleton, Wis.) won the 100 backstroke (1:24.27), while Lindsay DeLaRosby (Two Harbors, Minn.) chipped in second-place efforts in both the 50- and 100-meter freestyle (30.17 and 1:07.75). Ellen Meloy (Rochester, Minn.) also posted a pair of second-place showings in diving, totaling 191.10 points in the one-meter and 196.13 points in the three-meter.

"It was a good opening meet for both teams," said Lindquist, whose teams return to action tonight, when they host Luther in a dual at the Jul Gernes Pool. "We had some very good swims, and hopefully we can just keep building."
