LA MIRADA, Calif. --- The Biola University women's swim team was victorious in each event contested and easily defeated Mills College 139-54 in a dual meet at Lancing Pool on Saturday morning.

Freshmen Amber Kiel and Rachel Sirjord led the Eagles with first place finishes in both of their events. Kiel placed first in both the 200 Free (2:09.47) and the 100 back (1:06.11). Sirjord took top honors in the 100 Fly (1:02.32) and the 500 Free (5:31.36).
