Cal Women Prevail Over Michigan

ANN ARBOR, Michigan, October 28. LED by Jessica Hardy’s stellar performance in the 100-yard breaststroke, the Cal-Berkeley women secured a 167-128 triumph over Michigan on Thursday in nonconference action. The meet featured a pair of nationally ranked squads, as Cal entered as No. 8 and Michigan held the 15th slot.

The silver medalist in the 50 and 100 breaststroke races at last summer’s World Championships in Montreal, Hardy easily won the 100 breast against Michigan, clocking a mark of 1:01.33, faster than the A qualifying standard for the NCAA Championships. The world-record holder in the long-course version of the 100 breast, Hardy also won the 200 individual medley (2:04.93), albeit while swimming exhibition.

Emily Silver also produced a dazzling showing, as the sophomore prevailed in the 50, 100 and 200 freestyle events. Silver claimed top honors in the 50 with a mark of 23.44 and bested the field in the 100 with a time of 50.96. Hardy was second in the 100 with a swim of 51.44. Silver’s win in the 200 arrived in 1:49.27.

California was also bolstered by Helen Silver, who doubled in the 100 and 200 backstrokes, and by Leann Toomey in the 100 and 200 butterfly races. Ann Babicz contributed a victory for the Golden Bears in the 200 breast and Erin Reilly was first to the wall in the 500 free. Michigan received a triumph from Susan Gilliam in the 1,000 free.
