HANOVER, N.H. – Klara Johnsson Stjernstrom took first in the 1 meter dive and 3 meter dive, qualifying her for NCAA Diving Zones on Saturday morning as the Big Green fell to Columbia from Karl Michael & Spaulding Pools.
Johnsson Stjernstrom scored a 286.80 on the 1 meter and a 298.95 on the 3 meter and now sits 8th on the All-Time performers list. Chiara Lopach also qualified for Zones with a score of 269.10 on the 1 meter.
"With eight women out for illness, the folks who competed today really stepped up and came together as one team. Kathy Jia and Johnsson Stjernstrom both had fabulous meets and I can't wait to see what they can do at the end of the season. This was the last meet seniors Sophie Weiner and Hayden Barry will have in their home pool and they both had fantastic performances with a lifetime best in the 200 back from Sophie in addition to some season best times and Hayden going season best times in her distance events today was exciting too. We've got some sharpening up to do as we start to prepare for the final competitions of the season and I look forward to seeing the women build on their mindset and energy from this weekend," said Head Coach Milana Socha.
The 200 medley relay of Jamie Legh, Kathy Jia, Lane Murray and Samantha Li set a pool record, that was broken by the same relay team last weekend, in a first place time of 1:41.72. In the relay, Jia went a lifetime best in her breast leg.
In the B 200 medley relay, Xzana Duranovich had a lifetime best in her breast leg, breaking 30 seconds for the first time.
Legh took first place in the 100 back with a time of 55.38. She also swam a 55.19 in the 100 butterfly for a first place finish.
Jia swam to a pool record time of 2:15.09 in the 200 breast. The time won the event, set a new pool record, it was her lifetime best time, and she now sits 2nd on the All-Time Top-10 list.
