PROVIDENCE, R.I. — With the first night of the Ivy League Championships in the books, one program record as already fallen as the Big Green are off to a strong start at Brown.

In the first event of the four-day championship, Jamie Legh, Kathy Jia, Lane Murray and Samantha Li registered a time of 1:40.47, toppling a program record that had stood since the 2018-19 season by more than a second, to place sixth above Columbia and Penn. Legh opened the relay with a lifetime best 25.12 seconds.

Dartmouth placed eighth in the 800 free relay with Carinn Bethea, Kathy Jia, Sydney Rawie and McLane Gmelich recording a time of 7:24.91. the 10th best in program history.

Both encouraging relay squads featured three first-years.

Thursday will feature the 500 free, 200 IM, 50 free, 1-meter dive and 200 free relay. Session 2 (prelims) begin at 11 a.m. and the action will continue to air live on ESPN+.
