Loretto, Pa. – Saint Francis women’s swimming standouts Sara Turner (Enola, Pa./East Pennsboro) and Maura Rubio (Meadville, Pa./Reach Cyber Charter) have been named NEC Prime Performers for the week of October 15 following their impressive performances at the Colgate Invitational.
Turner led the Red Flash with multiple top-five finishes across the two-day meet, continuing her strong start to the 2025–26 season. She placed second in the 400-yard individual medley (4:37.06), fourth in the 200-yard butterfly (2:12.13), and added a fourth-place finish in the 500-yard freestyle (5:16.19).
