She was 16th in the 500 freestyle at last month\u2019s ACC Championship after surpassing the NCAA provisional standard during preliminaries with a 4:45.40 clocking. The Westport, Conn., native was unable to swim in the mile at ACCs due to illness but recorded a time of 16:17.89 at the Bulldog Last Chance Meet last week.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to ranking second in program history in the 500 and 1,650 freestyle, Abel broke the school record in the 200 freestyle with a 1:47.90 split on the Blue Devils\u2019 800 freestyle relay at the ACC meet.<\/p>\n<p>With four representatives now headed to the Women\u2019s NCAA Championship in Atlanta, Duke will also be able to send its two relays that earned \u2018B\u2019 cuts during the course of the season. The 200 freestyle relay of freshman <strong>Maddie Hess<\/strong> , Rusch, Goldman and junior <strong>Jessie Sutherland<\/strong> surpassed the provisional standard and the previous program record with a mark of 1:29.75 at the Nike Cup Invitational. The same meet also saw the Blue Devils\u2019 400 freestyle relay of Hess, Rusch, senior <strong>Chelsea Ye<\/strong> and Goldman collect a \u2018B\u2019 cut and a school record at 3:16.37.<\/p>\n<p>Before beginning competition at the NCAA Championship March 16, the Duke women will look to qualify divers through the NCAA Zone B Diving Championships, which get underway Monday in Atlanta.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Duke was the happy recipient of some good fortune with Arizona&#8217;s Sara Borendame scratching from the 2016 NCAA Division I Women&#8217;s Championships.
