While most students were enjoying a relaxing winter break at home, the No. 4-ranked Washington University women’s basketball team was busy maintaining its undefeated record, which included three blowout victories and a 65-52 win over the University of Chicago to kick off University Athletic Association play.

Senior forward Matt Paucki prepares to make a pass against Trinity University on Dec. 6. Palucki led the team with 23 points and 10 rebounds against Coe College over winter break on Dec. 20.

Meanwhile, the then-top-ranked men’s basketball team defeated Coe College, 88-78, before losing its undefeated record and No. 1 ranking with a humbling 63-43 loss at Chicago. And at the WU Invitational, the men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams won a combined 30 of 34 events to sweep the team titles.

In case you weren’t actively monitoring Wash. U. sports over the break, here are a few other key athletic accomplishments.
