TEMPE, Ariz. - Nationally-ranked Arizona State scored a 172.5-115.5 victory over WSU Saturday.

The Cougars had four individual wins with sophomore Shawna Keller scoring two big wins in the 100 yard breaststroke (1:04.85) and the 200 yard breaststroke (2:18.09). Keller's time in the 200 breaststroke made the cut for the NCAA "B" standard.

Two other Cougars brought home victories with senior Lina Daugvilaite winning the 500 yard freestyle (5:08.63) and Rugile Mileisyte touching first in the 100 yard backstroke (57.05).

The Cougars placed second in eight of the remaining 10 events they competed in.

"All in all, it was a good meet," said WSU Head Coach Erica Quam. "It was a nice two-day back-to-back competition, and I think it'll really set us up well going into Princeton."

WSU is 3-1 in dual meet competition and after Thanksgiving will compete at the Princeton Invitational Nov. 30-Dec. 2.
