The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater men's and women's swimming and diving teams continued the first month of the 2019-20 competition season with the annual All-Wisconsin Invitational at Schroeder Aquatic Center in Brown Deer, Wis.
 
Saturday's meet included teams from the Division I and Division III levels from inside the state of Wisconsin.
 
"Today was a great opportunity to compete against schools from across the state of Wisconsin," UW-Whitewater Head Coach Elise Knoche said. "Not only did we get to compete against a few conference schools, but we were also able to compete against athletes from schools that we will not see throughout the rest of the season.
 
"Many people improved upon their performances from last week, and I am proud of how our swimmers found ways to swim fast event when they have been working hard in the weight room and pool. We will take what we learned from this outing, and use that feedback to help us prepare for our first dual against UW-Oshkosh in two weeks."
 
On the men's side, juniors Tyler Chatterton (Kenosha, Wis./Tremper), Jake Herlache (West Bend, Wis./Grafton), Zach Noll (Peoria, Ill./Dunlap) and freshman Joe Wenszell (Milwaukee, Wis./Wisconsin Virtual Learning) led the Warhawks in two individual events apiece.
 
Chatterton placed seventh in the 200-yard individual medley with a 2:01.89 and eighth in the 100-yard breaststroke in 1:00.62. Herlache touched the wall in 55.97 seconds in the 100-yard backstroke, good for 11th place, and posted a 22.69 in the 50-yard freestyle, good for 14th.
 
Noll finished seventh in the 200-yard individual medley with a time of 4:25.10 and was 11th in the 200-yard backstroke in 2:05.73. Wenszell placed among the top eight in the two butterfly events, finishing fifth in the 200 with a 1:59.44 and eighth in the 100 with a 53.09.
 
Senior Meredith Gustafson (Brookfield, Wis./East), junior Olivia Theobald (Peoria, Ill./Dunlap), freshmen Madyson Gomez (Cary, Ill./Dundee Crown) and Leanne Stigler (Beloit, Wis./Muskego) led the women, each claiming two individual events.
