Annapolis, Md. - The Colgate men's and women's swimming and diving team's wrapped up their season in this weekend's Patriot League Championships.  Both teams finished in fifth place, with the men's team netting 392 total points and the women totaling 372.  The women's team climbed one spot in the standings on Saturday, overtaking Army in the evening's final session.
