The University of Louisville women's swimming and diving team opened the season at the University of Illinois with a strong showing in diving as Marianne Bradford swept both boards.

The women fell 171-119 to the Illini. Head coach Arthur Albiero was pleased with his team's effort in their inaugural meet of 2004-05.

"Marianne Bradford had a great meet on the boards for us. She has taken her diving to a whole new level this year," said Albiero. "This was a great effort by our team and even though the scoring got out of range, we kept fighting until the end."

The format did not favor the undermanned Cardinals either. The meet lasted only 90 minutes without the men giving the women a break between races. This favored the Illini's depth.

However, Albiero was pleased with Heather Meng's performance. She won the 200-breast and the 200-IM.

Her time of 2:22.10 in the 200-breast was her best dual meet time ever.

Albiero also credits the performance of freshman Amanda Taylor's swim in the 1000.

"She was down six seconds near the end of the race and she just kicked it in and swam like crazy and ended up only losing by one half of one second. This whole meet was a very positive experience for us." said Albiero.
