The Union Catholic swim team fought valiantly to keep its long dual meet winning streak alive, but came up a little short against a very strong South Plainfield squad on Wednesday night at the Jewish Community Center in Scotch Plains.

The Vikings, who had won a remarkable 28 straight dual meets and hadn't lost a dual since 2021, fell to undefeated South Plainfield, 97-73. South Plainfield is 5-0.

Terry Gould had a sensational meet for UC. He won the 100-yard backstroke in 1:01.56 and finished first in the 500 free in 5:17.54. The Vikings also won the 200 freestyle relay as Zach Rush, Normandie Beversluis, Mike Riely, and Hope Kennedy combined to clock a 1:43.21.    

The Vikings, now 3-1 on the season, will seek to start a new winning streak this Tuesday vs. Brearley.
