Scoring Note:
The scoring system is markedly different than normal dual meet scoring. Each individual race consists of three head-to-head matchups, and the winner of each earns one point, and the overall winners gains one more point. We’ll list the results 1st-6th in order of time, but we’ll also include an asterisk next to the three swimmers who won their head-to-head matchups.

Is Moesch pronounced “mesh,” or “Moe-sh” like most, or “Mosh” like Chris Bosh?
“Moe-sh”
Actually it is Super-star.
Yeah like Moe from the Simpsons-sh. Emphasis on the first syllable.
UVA put belt to ass good lord.
Bujak-Upton showed he’s for real, not just a flash in the pan. After jumping to the top of the 200 free rankings yesterday at 1:31.30 (from 1:33+ earlier this season and 1:36+ last year as a freshman) to repeating his 200 at 1:31.5 and then dropping his 500 from 4:19.3 (earlier this season) to 4:14.70; he came into year with PB of 4:20.23 from 12/24 JRs.
Will he become a thorn in America’s side 200 LCM Free and/or 800 relay? His best 200 LCM is from 1/10/25 at the Australian Trials 1:48.74. It seems safe to say, though, that he is a substantially improved swimmer in the last year
Your results transposed the central digits in the 500 of Bujak-Upton; he was 4:17.40, not 4:14.70
Dang Anna Moesh, we see you girl
would michigan need to beat tenesee again at 6pm today to go against virgina tomr?
ridiculous format!!!
Mich swims Tenn again ???
if Mish wins again they swim UVA again tomorrow, and UVA never swims Tenn
It’s really quite stupid lol
Kharun lead-off ties Liendo for National lead at :18.40; Fabiani lead off B in :18.83.
ASU 1:13.84 leads next fastest by nearly 2 seconds from rankings going into weekend
ASU B 1:16.00, for times going into weekend, B trails only ASU A and Louisville by 0.26s and Texas by 0.03
It’s official.
The University of Michigan was obliterated.
“meaning we won’t see the women compete again until tomorrow….”
….. then Moesch drops a 45 almoat immediately
