<br /> Dixie State swimming collected nine event wins on its way to a 147-115 dual victory over WAC opponent Idaho in the Trailblazers' final home meet of the 2021-22 season on Saturday afternoon at the DSU HPC Pool. <br />  <br /> Freshman Paulina Sansores accounted for three of DSU's race victories, touching the wall first in the 1,000-yard freestyle (10:33.58; #4 all-time at DSU), the 500 free (5:11.43) and in the 200 IM (2:10.39).<br />  <br /> Meanwhile junior Kyrie Nicolds, swimming in her final home meet, won both the 50 free (24.64) and the 100 free (53.77) sprint races, while sophomore Akalia Bostock claimed victory in the 200 free (1:54.93). Fellow sophomore Skyler Lyon also picked up an individual event win in the 100 breast (1:05.31).<br />  <br /> In addition, the Trailblazers swept both the relay races, starting with the 200 medley relay in a time of 1:47.31, while the 400 free relay team closed the meet with an event-winning time of 3:34.36. <br /> <br /> Dixie State will wrap up the 2021-22 regular season on Saturday, Feb. 12, when the Blazers travel to Las Vegas to swim at the UNLV First Chance Invite. That meet will serve as the final tune-up before the 2022 Western Athletic Conference Swim and Dive Championships, which will be held on Feb. 23-26, in Houston, Texas.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
