STOCKTON, Calif. — Cal State East Bay wrapped up the 2025-26 regular season Saturday with a competitive showing in a double dual meet at Chris Kjeldsen Pool at the Douglass M. Eberhardt Aquatics Center, falling to host Pacific 139-121 while also earning a head-to-head victory over Simon Fraser. The Pioneers opened the meet with an event win and collected multiple individual victories throughout the afternoon.

East Bay set the tone immediately, as Taylor Kolsch, Rae Ann Dressel, Tehani Kong and Alexia Fajardo captured first place in the 400-yard medley relay with a time of 3:47.64.

Kong paced the Pioneer sprint efforts with a pair of individual victories. She touched the wall first in the 50-yard backstroke with a time of 26.23 seconds and followed with a win in the 50-yard freestyle, clocking 23.74 seconds.

Dressel added an individual win of her own, finishing first in the 50-yard breaststroke in 29.63 seconds. Fajardo was dominant in the butterfly events, winning the 150-yard butterfly in 1:30.39 and later claiming the 50-yard butterfly in 25.50 seconds.

In the distance events, Malana Kollath placed third in the 500-yard freestyle with a time of 5:01.31, contributing valuable points in a tightly contested meet.

In her final regular season meet as a Pioneer, Kylie Beaudet delivered a standout performance, winning the 150-yard breaststroke in 1:42.82 and placing second in the 100-yard individual medley.

The final event of the regular season for East Bay came in the 200-yard freestyle relay, where Kong, Kali Mull, Lily Caraway and Dressel placed second with a time of 1:36.71.

With the regular season complete, Cal State East Bay now turns its attention to the 2026 PCSC Swimming & Diving Championships, scheduled for Feb. 11-14. For the fourth consecutive year, the conference meet will be held at East Los Angeles College Swim Stadium in Monterey Park, Calif., where the Pioneers will look to reclaim the PCSC crown after narrowly missing by a small point margin in 2025.
