The women set new records in the 400 medley and 800 free
relays. Both previous records had stood for over 10 years. The 400
medley relay (Ashlyn Schleder, Lincoln; Sandra Stopczynska, Warsaw,
Poland; Sarah Ochoa, Tinley Park; Paula Carvajal, Bogota, Columbia)
broke the school record by over six seconds and took home fourth
place in the event. The 800 free relay (Maggie Rea, Parsons, Kan.;
Kristina Welke, Homewood; Samantha Schneider, Pinckneyville; Ashlyn
Schleder, Lincoln) broke the school record by over 20 seconds. They
placed second in the event, edging out Daytona State College. In
leading off the 800 free relay, Maggie Rea (Parsons, Kan.) also
broke the team record in the 200 free. The previous record was held
by Wendy Reed for 12 years. For the men, Bryce Bohman (Moline) set
a new national record in the 100 back with his lead-off leg in the
record-setting 400 medley relay. He had set the previous record
earlier this season. He also set a new pool record along with his
national record. The 400 medley relay (Bryce Bohman, Moline; Chris
Canene, Naperville; Gabe Cury, Novo Hamburgo, Brazil; Milton
Alberto-Requejo, Buenos Aires, Argentina) set a new team record,
which was previously set at the same pool two years ago, and took
home third place. In the men's 800 free relay (Richard Russell,
Douglasville, Ga.; Shelby Miller, Rock Falls; Austin Payne, Good
Hope; Kyle Kummer, Addison), all of the men hit lifetime bests in
their swims and took home fourth place in the event.

Coach Jake Sexton said: "If tonight is any indication what the
rest of the meet will be like, we are in for some real fast
swimming. These swims tonight have put us in a real good position
for the rest of the meet, and I look forward to watching the rest of
the team. I'm extremely pleased in the direction we are headed in."
