Columbia, SC – The Columbia College (SC) women's swim team will host Point University and St. Andrews University in the Columbia College Dual Meet Saturday, Oct. 30, at Greer Auditorium. Events get underway at 11 am with senior presentations.

Avy Ayn Watts also swam solid for Columbia, finishing second in the 1650-yard free and was a member of the third place 200-yard relay team.

Point will enter the meet with two meets under its belt, while St. Andrews will enter the pool for the first time since Oct. 9.

After Saturday's meet, the Koalas will not return to competition until the middle of next month when they travel to Gainesville, Ga. to participate in the Brenau Invite the weekend of November 19-20.
