"I am proud of our full team effort tonight, highlighted by four new personal bests, 10 new season bests and
Sam Allen's pool record of 1:51.24 in the 200 backstroke," head coach
Jen Buffin said. "Everyone is contributing through great race execution, pushing each other in the pool, and supporting each other on deck and behind the blocks. Our divers continue to improve as they develop new dives, and it was exciting to see Keegan O'Connor and
Mel McCullough compete in their first collegiate meet. Our Pink Meet was a meaningful opportunity to raise awareness during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the fantastic student section turnout and support from CC students, families and our community brought incredible energy."
