Missouri women's swimming tops Iowa State

AMES, Iowa – The 21st-ranked Missouri women’s swimming and diving team came away with a 190-105 victory over the Iowa State Cyclones Saturday .

At least two Tigers finished in the top two spots in nearly every event and 12 total wins.

Missouri's Colleen Gordon won the 200 free race in 1:49.61, setting an ISU pool record, followed by Kim Jasmer in second in 1:49.80 and Caitlin Connor in third in 1:55.54. Gordon then went on to win the 100 butterfly.

Dominique Bouchard was the next Tiger to double-up  Saturday, first taking the 100 backstroke in 55.72 seconds. In the 200 backstroke,  Bouchard won again.
