After racing back from Charlottesville, Va., for classes on Monday morning, yesterday's dual meet at Boston College was not the top priority for the Harvard women's swimming team.

The Crimson (5-0, 4-0 Ivy League), which finished second to No. 10 Virginia at UVA's Cavalier Invitational last weekend, sent the maximum 26 of its 43 swimmers to the dual meet at Chestnut Hill and the team returned with a 167-114 victory over the Eagles (1-3, 0-1 Big East).

"We were all really tired from Virginia and we knew Boston College wasn't a particularly strong team," co-captain Corie Calfee said. "So we went in just looking to get out of there with a win."

Calfee, who finished First-Team All-Ivy last year in the 100 breaststroke, won that event yesterday in addition to her specialty--the 100 individual medley. Her teammates chipped in with six other first-place individual finishes to maintain Harvard's undefeated record.

"We were tired so our times weren't as good as at Virginia," said freshman Lovisa Gustafsson, who won the 200 butterfly and the 500 freestyle. "But we're all happy to be 5-0 at this point."

In other events, sophomore Sarah Murphy took the 100 butterfly and freshman Rachel O'Beirne won the 200 breaststroke.

A pair of Harvard rookies dominated the freestyle sprint events. Victoria Cheng had the fastest 200-meter time while Christin McConnell was first in the 100-meter race.

"I swam against the same B.C. girl in both the 50 and finished second," McConnell said. "I knew she had a lot of early speed, so I was more confident in the 100. When I was able to hang with her in the first 25 meters, I knew I could beat her."
