"We came roaring back today with some phenomenal performances in prelims, setting us up for an amazing finals session," head coach Anne Goodman James said. "The day was highlighted with  31 individual Lifetime best times, two school records, a SCAC record, and an NCAA qualifying time.  I was so proud of the team for their continuing energy and team support. We just had a true demonstration of our team's culture in the way we respect our opponents and support our teammates. Tomorrow is a big day with the longest list of swimming events, and our first round of diving events."
