After a full day of competition, the Nebraska swimming and diving team sits in first place with 454.5 points after eight events at the Hawkeye Invitational in Iowa City, Iowa.
Beatrix Tanko put up a school record-setting time in the 50 freestyle race with a time of 22.17. The Hungarian swimmer previously held the second-fastest time for the Big Red with a time of 22.47.
Gena Jorgenson led the efforts in the 500 free with a first-place finish in the finals through a time of 4:40.29, just shy of her record-setting career best of 4:39.31. Second-year swimmer Riley Miklos added a fourth-place finish in the finals round of the event and recorded a third-place personal best in the prelims with a time of 4:50.87.
Several other Huskers recorded career-best performances in the 500 free: Jazmyn Lunn (4:51.24), Alaira Hadford (4:54.38), Aurora Zanin (4:56.48), and Jenna Brown (4:55.89). Notably, Marchi captured a sixth-place finish in 4:52.16.
Marissa Laurin, a sophomore from Alberta, Canada, harnessed a career time in the 200 IM with a finals time of 2:01.43 and a sixth-place finish. Sophie Kissuk, a fellow Canadian, recorded the next-best time for the Big Red with a 2:02.14 swim to finish in tenth.
A relay team of Tanko, Natalie Dunaway, Marchi and Jorgenson nabbed a fourth-place finish in the 200 freestyle relay. Freshman Dunaway recorded a split time of 22.61 in the 50 free to contribute to an overall time of 1:31.42. Dunaway earlier swam a 23.05 in the 50 free finals to grab a tenth-place position.
In the diving well, Abby Baxter logged a third-place finish on the one-meter board. The junior from Coppell, Texas, notched 311.05 points in the final competition for the event.
Nebraska will return to a two-session competition on Thursday, Nov. 20, with prelims beginning at 10 a.m. (CT) and finals at 5 p.m. The meet can be streamed on Iowa’s YouTube channel and followed along on the MeetMobile app for live results.
