Drury continued its dominance in the Division II Women's Swimming and Diving Championships, winning its fourth straight title March 8-11 at the Erie Community College Flickinger Aquatics Center in Buffalo, New York.

The Lady Panthers outscored Truman by 107 points for the win.

Drury was led by the youthful tandem of freshman Jennifer Klemme and sophomore Megan Krueger, who won or contributed to four titles each. Klemme qualified for the Olympic Trials with her winning times in the 100- and 200-yard breaststrokes, and she also took the 200- and 400-yard individual medley titles.

Krueger repeated as champion in the 50-yard freestyle, won the 100-yard freestyle after finishing second last year, picked up another title with a win in the 100-yard butterfly and contributed to her team's win in the 400-yard freestyle relay. Krueger's time of 51:22 in the 100-yard freestyle qualified her for the U.S. Senior National Championships.

Meanwhile, runner-up Truman was led by sophomore Bridget Riley, who won the 500-yard freestyle, helped her team win the 800-yard freestyle relay and finished third in the 1,650-yard freestyle.

In other top performances, Salem-Teikyo's Meitri Pangestika returned to the winner's stand in the 200-yard freestyle after relinquishing her title to Drury's Kathleen Hayes at last year's championships. Pangestika also won the 200-yard butterfly.

North Dakota, last year's runner-up, had a solid third-place performance thanks to wins in the 200- and 400-yard medley relays.

Clarion's Stephanie Sutton won both the one- and three-meter diving events to help her team to a fourth-place finish.

Rounding out the top 10 were St. Cloud State (259), West Chester (238), Indiana (Pennsylvania) (189), Northern Michigan (1811/2), Northern Colorado (139) and Nebraska-Omaha (1281/2).
