Day 1 recap here, including breaking of a Dana Vollmer Pool Record.
The Purdue women came away with another Pool Record on day 2 of their Big Ten tri-meet in Evanston, Illinois on Saturday, but it was the defending conference champions from Minnesota who came away with the victory.
Final Scores:
- Minnesota 245 – Northwestern 108
- Minnesota 191 – Purdue 162
- Purdue 244 – Northwestern 109
The meet concludes all thre teams’ regular-season schedules. Minnesota will finish their dual meet schedule with a record 8-1-1, Purdue came away at 8-3 in dual meets, and Northwestern wound up at 8-4 overall.
The Purdue 400 medley relay team of Breanna Robinson, Emily Fogle, Meagan Lim, and Allie Davis won the event in 3:41.54. The old record belonged to the home team in a 3:41.92 set last season.
The second day, though, was almost all gophers outside of that opening relay. Minnesota went 1-2 in the 400 IM with Brooke Zeiger swimming a season-best of 4:17.26 to win – adding to her 200 IM victory from Friday.
Danielle Nack got another weekend-sweep for Minnesota, winning the 100 fly in 54.80 after taking the 200 on the meet’s first day.
Lauren Votava picked up a win for Minnesota in the 100 free with a 50.01, and in the process gave Davis her only individual blemish of the weekend – she placed 2nd in 50.77. Her day also included a victory in the 500 free in 4:47.29 – part of a 1-2 Purdue finish.
For Northwestern, the highlight of the meet, and of the season, continues to be junior Lacey Locke. After winning the 100 back on Friday, she added a victory in the 200 back on Saturday in 1:59.23 – giving her more than a two second margin of victory.
