FRESNO, Calif. -The Fresno State swimming and diving team defended its home pool advantage for the second time this week beating the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners on Saturday afternoon 183-114 at Clovis North Aquatics Complex.

"To have two wins in a row like this is just a very exciting thing for our program," said head coach Jeanne Fleck. "The girls swam really well and I thought we looked very sharp today."
Freshman Dani Yoho was all smiles as she stole the show in every event she competed in for the second meet in a row. She finished first in the 50 and 100 freestyle events and helped both the 400 freestyle relay and 200 medley relay teams to impressive victories over the Roadrunners.
