The program also honored four seniors - Anna Endsley, Katrina Kanzari, Peyton Mullins and Sierra Szuhay - for swimming in the final home meet of their careers.
"Today, we had an opportunity to celebrate our senior class," Head Coach Trip Breen said. "I am thankful for the memories that we share, their hard work, their commitment to Wilmington College and our swimming program. I am grateful for the time that we have spent together. They will be missed."
The 100-meter breaststroke proved to be the Quakers' best event on the day as Makenna Garn (1:21.53), Alayna Fierman (1:26.96) and Abbi Whitesell (1:32.56) went 1-2-3 respectively.
