KU swimming drops double dual

By Staff Reports     Jan 9, 2016

? Bryce Hinde swam to a pair of second-place finishes, and fellow Kansas University swimmers Haley Bishop and Madison Straight added two more, but the Jayhawks dropped a pair of decisions in a double dual on Friday at Biscayne Bay Aquatic Center.

KU fell to No. 13 North Carolina State, 161-119, and to Florida International, 150.5-148.5.

Hinde, a senior captain from Fort Scott, was the runner-up in the 100- and 200-yard breaststroke. Straight was second in the 400 individual medley with a time of 4:24.51, just two seconds behind NC State’s Hannah Moore at 4:22.40. Bishop (55.81) nearly claimed the Jayhawks only victory of the day in the 100 butterfly, but was out-touched by NC State’s Yurie Nakano (55.75).

“It was a humbling experience,” Kansas coach Clark Campbell said. “To practice the back-to-back racing is really important as we look ahead to the Big 12 Conference meet. Today was not a shining moment, but we have another opportunity to put this race out of our minds and go for it again tomorrow. This time of the year the results can be volatile, you just kind of live and learn.”

KU will face Miami and Rutgers today in Coral Gables, Florida.

Florida International 150.5, Kansas 148.5
