Indiana made an early run throughout prelims, but four A finalists for Michigan evened the score for the Wolverines during day 3 prelims of the 2016 Big Ten Women’s Championships.<\/p>\n

Michigan finished swimming with 20 finalists, including a whopping 10 A finalists (10\/5\/5). \u00a0Indiana, who had the most even day throughout, qualified 19 finalists (9\/6\/4). \u00a0Purdue stood third with 17 finalists, although 10 of those are set for the C finals (4\/2\/10).<\/p>\n

Ohio State (13) and Penn State (12) rounded out the top five with defending champion Minnesota falling back with just 9 finalists (5\/2\/2).<\/p>\n

400 IM<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ohio State’s Lindsey Clary<\/strong> raced her way into the top seed in the distance medley event with a time of 4:07.05. \u00a0No one else came even close to her time. \u00a0Minnesota’s Brooke Zeiger<\/strong> qualified second in 4:09.98 with Michigan’s Bi Yirong<\/strong> taking third overall in 4:10.91.<\/p>\n

Indiana and Michigan both made a big move in this event as Indiana claimed 5 finalists (2\/1\/2) and Michigan earning 4 finalist (2\/1\/1).<\/p>\n

100 fly<\/strong><\/p>\n
Li Zhesi<\/strong>, a former world record holder for China who also served a two-year doping suspension earlier in her career<\/a>, claimed Ohio State’s second top seed of the morning with a pool record time of 51.72. \u00a0That swim cleared the 51.85 set by Caroline Rodriguez<\/strong> of Michigan back in 2009 and put Li in line to lower the Big Ten record of 51.56 set by Mackenzie Powers<\/strong> of Penn State in 2014.<\/p>\n
That’s a strong swim for Li, who just took down the 50 free last night.<\/p>\n
Indiana’s Gia Dalesandro<\/strong> finished second in 52.08 with Wisconsin’s Dana Grindall<\/strong> earning the third seed in 52.61 as the only other sub-53 swims of the morning.<\/p>\n
Following the 100 fly, Indiana pushed its finalist tally to 8 (4\/2\/2), while Purdue moved to 7 finalists (2\/1\/3). \u00a0Minnesota owned 5 finalist spots (3\/0\/2), while Michigan held 5 as well (2\/2\/1).<\/p>\n

200 free<\/strong><\/p>\n
Indiana’s Haley Lips<\/strong> broke a long standing pool record with a 1:44.36 to top the women’s 200-yard free. \u00a0That swim downed the 1996 facility standard of Martina Moracova<\/strong> when she swam a 1:44.64 for SMU.<\/p>\n
Lips was joined in the top 2 by teammate Kennedy Goss<\/strong>, who posted a 1:44.84 for the second seed.<\/p>\n

100 breast<\/strong><\/p>\n
Indiana’s super freshman Lilly King<\/strong> unleashed a pool and school record time of 58.38 to lead the Hoosiers to another 1-2 seed finish. \u00a0That swim broke the pool mark of 59.17 set by Jillian Tyler<\/strong> back in 2009. \u00a0King will now target Tyler’s conference mark of 58.08 from 2011.<\/p>\n
King’s teammate Miranda Tucker<\/strong> put up a 59.37 to qualify second, while Iowa’s Emma Sougstad<\/strong> (59.50) and Purdue’s Emily Fogle<\/strong> (59.61) also cleared 1:00 in prelims.<\/p>\n
Indiana made a big push in terms of point-scorers with 17 total finalists after the 100 breast (8\/5\/4). \u00a0Michigan continued to remain close with 14 finalists (6\/4\/4). \u00a0The biggest problem for Indiana, however, if you want to call it that is that most of their swimmers are all seeded at the top of their heats, while Michigan’s swimmers are all in the middle of their heats. \u00a0That means IU has to swim to their seeds to maximize points this evening.<\/p>\n
Purdue also stood at 14 finalists, but is bottom heavy with 7 C finalists (4\/2\/7).<\/p>\n
