Sophomore Sharli Brady claimed the first of two wins with a first-place showing in the 200 fly (2:00.32). The sophomore then clocked a 52.04 in the 100 free to claim top honors in that race as well.

The Tigers earned a backstroke sweep thanks to swims from junior Nadine Laemmler and Stevens. Laemmler struck first as she placed first in the 100 back in 56.33, while Stevens touched the wall first in the 200 back after a swim of 2:01.30.
