Ohio University vs. Miami
Ohio University raced their final dual meet
against in-conference rivals, Miami, on Saturday, February 7th at home in Athens. It
was a hard fought meet that resulted in
several big milestones for the Bobcats.
Ohio tallied 7 event wins on the day. The
first win was the 200 medley relay team of
Ferguson, Bagan, Dawson, and Clark. A few
events later Addy Ferguson took the win in
the 100 back. Ferguson’s win was followed

by Tori Bagan’s first place in the 100
breast, and Laura Dawson’s first in the
200 back. The wins in those events solidified undefeated dual meet performances for the 200 medley relay, Bagan
(100 breast), Ferguson (100 back), and
Dawson (200 back). Other event wins on
the day were Bianca Hauzer in the 500
free, Dawson again in the 200 fly, and
Ferguson in the 100 fly.

2015 MAC Championships
The 2015 MAC Championships came to
a close this past week. The Bobcats
had a great meet, posting 43 lifetime
best times, 18 new performances that
cracked Ohio’s all time top 10, 4 MAC
event wins, 7 NCAA B cuts, 3 new team
records, 2 All-MAC 1st team members,
a new MAC meet record, and one of
our swimmers was named the MAC
swimmer of the meet. Highlights from
the meet included Addy Ferguson defending her MAC titles in the 100 fly
and 100 back. Addy is now the 2 time
defending champion in the 100 fly, and

the three time defending champion in
the 100 back. Laura Dawson had an
incredible meet as well. After placing
3rd in the 100 fly, Laura won titles in
both the 200 fly and 200 back setting
new team records in both. Laura’s
1:55.23 in the 200 back also broke the
previous MAC meet record, and her
efforts throughout the week earned her
MAC Swimmer of the meet honors. Although the 6th place finish was not what
our team wanted, we were very happy
with the girls’ effort and fight throughout the entire meet.
