PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Dartmouth women's swimming and diving opened the 2021-22 season on the road on Saturday, falling to host Brown (201.5-96.5) and Princeton (223-75).

The meet was scored as separate dual meets, not a tri-meet.

"It was a terrific day for Dartmouth swimming and diving," head coach Jesse Moore said. "The score does not represent the growth our program experienced today. We were truly a unified team with the best presence on deck. I am so proud of the steps forward this team is taking and I cannot wait to see their transformation through this process!"
