Friday Finals

Session 4 kicked off with a huge 200 Medley Relay- Our A relay went from a 1:57 to a 1:51.96. HUGE race from Kayla Schnars, Kaitlyn Druby, Kristen Capretti, and Carley Nitchie. In that race, Carley split a 23.84. Huge race.

The B relay of Abby Miller, Ciara Conklin, Jamie Mason, and Megan Dunn had a solid race, finishing in 2:02.85.

In the 400 IM Kristin Taylor finished 5th with her lifetime best time of 4:53.54, just missing the PSAC cut of 4:53.27. Allie Muha improved on her morning swim to finish 7th in 4:55.12.

Meghan Kuhn  and Emily Shultz finished 16th and 17th in the first ever evening swim at a prelims/finals event. Kristin Taylor came back on short rest and put forward a 1:02.18, good enough for 4th place.

In the 200 Free, Danielle Parowski finished 1st with another school record, beating the great Amanda Terray's relay leadoff split from PSACs in 2010. Danielle lowered the time to 1:53.58, which is also an NCAA "B" cut!

Kristen Capretti finished the race 6th. Very excited to see what she can do in the 100 free tomorrow.

In the 100 breast, Druby took 5th place points, Amanda Thomas finished 10th, and Ciara Conklin finished 16th, all scoring points.

In the 100 back Kayla finished 2nd with a time of 1:00.04, Abby Miller 11th with a 1:06.32, and Taylor Andress 12th with a 1:07.97.

The 800 free relay of Kristen Capretti, Allie, Kristin Taylor, and Danielle picked up 4th place points with an 8:15.94.

Dinner was a fine Italian establishment called Spaghetti Benders, a place I loved when I lived here. The Lasagna was just as good as I remembered it, and everyone seemed content.

Tomorrow will be a checkout and morning swim, with prelims beginning at 9am!
