Meet Highlights

  • Freshman Mia Yancey (Wallingford, Pa./Strath Haven) and senior Cate Kosko (Yardley, Pa./Pennsbury East) had a hand in both relay victories on Friday. The two swam the lead-off and anchor, respectively, of the 200 medley relay with freshman Olivia Pyott (Lancaster, Pa./Manheim Township) and sophomore Morgan Krepp (Dallas, Texas/Ursuline Academy) taking care of the breaststroke and butterfly legs. The team won by over six seconds at 1:53.11. In the 200 free relay, junior Grace Bobeck (Allentown, Pa./Salisbury), Kosko, freshman Lindsay Blake (Chester Springs, Pa./Downingtown East), and Yancey won by 12 seconds at 1:45.39.
  • Blake dominated the 1,000 free for the first of her two individual wins. The first-year kept each of her splits below 35 seconds and touched the wall more than 90 seconds in front of the runner-up with a time of 11:18.97.
