Brita Skalbeck joined the winning ways with her victory in the 100-back, finishing in 1:01.89. Ellen Dean made it two meets in a row with a win, taking the 200-fly, winning with a time of 2:17.22, over two seconds better than second place from MSUM.

Last Time Out: The Blazers started off the 2013-14 season on the right foot on Nov. 9, taking home the team title at the Hamline Invite.
