She won the event by more than five seconds. She also took second place in the 200 freestyle with a time of 1:59.29.

The quartet finished more than five seconds ahead of Union's top relay.

Diane Paverman '13 swept the diving events. Paverman topped the field in the 1-meter springboard with 252.97 points, and was first in the 3-meter board with 238.95 points. Both totals were season highs.

Lizzy Buhl '12 won a close race in the 1,000 free with a time of 11:03.74. Bucceri finished just .03 seconds behind the winner in the 200 individual medley with a time of 2:15.68. Burton was runner-up in the 100 butterfly in 1:01.45.
