Kenosha, Wis. - The Illinois Wesleyan University men's and women's swim and dive team took a business trip up to Kenosha, Wis. to compete against the Firebirds of Carthage College and the Scarlet Hawks of the Illinois Institute of Technology Saturday, Jan. 20. 

On the women's side, there were three Titans to note, all of whom placed first in their respective events. Junior Hadley Fudge (Stanford, Ill.-University) started IWU off snatching first place in the 100-yard breaststroke clocking in at 1:09.22. Fudge also won the 200-yard IM and punched in a time of 2:14.19. Senior Lauren Feddersen (Champaign, Ill.-Centennial) was the second on the women's side to snag a win with her victory coming in way of the 200-yard breaststroke, finishing with a time of 2:32.14. Sophomore Natalie Porter (Danville, Ill.-Danville) had an impressive win in the 500-yard freestyle event, shaving off seven seconds of her previous best time to clock in at 5:24.04.

For the men, one Titan to note was senior Ethan Lowder (Bloomington, Ill.-Normal Community). Lowder was the sole Titan with an event win on the mens side as he led the way in the 50-yard freestyle clocking in at 21.85. Junior Carter Dilger (Sellersburg, Ind.-Jeffersonville) took second place in the 200-yard butterfly with a time of 2:03.24 along with sophomore Sam Fogarty (Pontiac, Ill.-Pontiac Township) who was the runner-up in the 50-yard freestyle just shy of Lowder's time with a 22.19 effort.

The Titans compete next Saturday, Jan. 27 against Franklin College at their home pool in Fort Natatorium. The meet is set to start at 1 p.m. and will double as the swim and dive teams' Senior Day.
