GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. -- The Colorado State Rams swimming & diving squad picked up head-to-head wins over BYU and Colorado Mesa following a successful second day at the Intermountain Shootout.
CSU defeated BYU, 232.50-159.50 and Colorado Mesa, 280.00-113.00.Â
The Rams rattled off seven more individual victories to go with their first relay win of the year.Â
Sophomore Marie Goodwyn picked up her second and third wins of the weekend, winning the 200 Fly and 200 IM events.

Senior Gianna Salanitro won the 50 Breast and junior Ida Donohue was victorious in the 500 Free.
The Rams also took the 400 Free Relay, which ended the swimming portion of the event on the women's side. Colleen Olson, Rozie Selznick, Carmen Mand and Hauber combined to win the event for the Rams.
IN THEIR WORDS...
"We had two great days of racing and diving. We had a great combination of veterans and rookies step up and deliver some standout performances, winning some tight races and stepping outside of their comfort zone in some new events. We aimed to come out of here with two wins and we accomplished that. We are hoping to get some more athletes healthy soon and we are setting our sights on our home opener." -- CSU head coach Woody Woodard

CSU will host Denver for its first home meet of the season on Saturday, Oct. 21. The meet is slated to start at 12 p.m. MT at Moby Pool.
