BUFFALO, NY – The University at Buffalo swimming and diving program is continuing its season this Friday and Saturday at Eastern Michigan University, competing against the Eagles in the Jones Natatorium. The meet is set to begin on Friday at 5 p.m. and resume on Saturday at 11 a.m.
The Bulls enter their second meet of the season following a win over the Niagara Purple Eagles, 216-78. The program improved to 38-7 all-time against Niagara with the victory.
The Bulls were led by Adele Melamud in the diving well, who won both the one and three-meter competitions. Melamud posted personal best performances on both boards, rising to fifth in UB history in the three-meter (338.70) and taking 10th in the one-meter (281.10). Both scores also qualified Melamud for the NCAA Zone A Diving Championships in the spring and earned the sophomore her third MAC Diver of the Week award in her career. Maggie Meyers placed second in the three-meter (267.70), as Sophie Meuwissen (2nd, 257.33) and Tristan Krajcarski (3rd, 238.65) finished top three of the one-meter.
In the pool, Pinar Donmez helped the Bulls to three event wins. The sophomore took first place in the 100-yard breaststroke (1:04.58) and 100-yard individual medley (59.01), also helping the program to win the 200-yard medley relay (1:44.56). Kamilla Nemes added a win in the 400-yard individual medley (4:27.04), also placing second in the 100-yard individual medley (59.07) and the 500-yard freestyle (5:06.03).
The Bulls last competed against Eastern Michigan head-to-head in 2023, defeating the Eagles, 165.5-92.5. Assistant Coach Sydney Thomas returns to her alma mater this time as a member of the Bulls' coaching staff. Thomas competed as a member of the Eastern Michigan swimming team from 2016-2020, still ranking inside the program's all-time top 10 in the 200-yard backstroke (8th, 2:00.65) and 400-yard individual medley (10th, 4:25.39).
The Bulls are set to begin competition on Friday against the Eagles. A full schedule for UB Swimming & Diving.
