Emory’s Marissa Bergh raced to an amazing 22.55 anchor leg to bring home the victory for the Eagles. This was the second-fastest anchor leg across the board. She was preceded by Cindy Cheng (25.30), Kowalsky (28.67) and Sanchez-Aizcobe (24.31).
Despite a second-place finish, Denison’s team also swam a fast relay finishing with a 1:41.33. Freshman Kt Kustritz split a 27.82 on the breaststroke leg to keep the Big Red in the mix.
Third-place Williams had three solid splits and one incredible anchor leg by recent NCAA Division III 50 freestyle Champion Emma Waddell. Her swim of 22.26 was easily the fastest of any swimmer and surged the Ephs past Kenyon, Johns Hopkins and Connecticut College.
