The Huskies’ A and B teams took first and second place, respectively in the 200Y medley relay, giving NU a 15-6 lead in after the first two events of the meet.
Carly Schnabel (10:16.66) and Sarah Schlesinger (10:56.40) recorded season-best times in the 1000Y freestyle, and earned a combined 10 more points to add to the Huskies’ total.

A one, two, three finish in the 1M dive by Sabrina Chan (236.18), Elly Morrison (223.80) and Mackenzie Hagist (222.30) added another 16 points to the Huskies’ lead and gave Hagist a season high performance.
