CHAPEL HILL, NC, February 22. ALL good things must come to an end sometime. And so it was for North Carolina's women's swim team's three-year reign as queen of the Atlantic Coast Conference. <\/p>\n

Coach Frank Comfort's Lady Tar Heels were dethroned this evening in their own Maurice J. Koury Natatorium by Coach Mark Bernardino's Virginia Cavaliers. The ladies from Charlottesville won their fourth ACC Championship in the 24-year history of the meet and first since 1999. <\/p>\n

UVA scored 710 points, soundly defeating treble-defending champion North Carolina, which finished second with 609 points. By virute of its second-place finish, the Tar Heels keep alive their streak of having finished either first or second in every championship ever held. <\/p>\n

Virginia hadn't ruled the ACC roost since the Cavaliers won back-to-back titles in '98 and '99. The win allows the Wahoos to tie Clemson for the second-most ACC women's swimming championships in history. Virginia also won in 1990 and Clemson won titles in 1987, 1988, 1989 and 1997. The Tigers and Cavaliers have each won four while North Carolina has 15 and NC State two–in 1979 and 1980. <\/p>\n

(Virginia is also defending men's ACC champs and expected to mount a vigorous defense of its title next week here.) <\/p>\n

Florida State finished third for the second-consecutive year with 557 points. Maryland was fourth (538), Clemson fifth (339), Georgia Tech sixth (259), NC State seventh (241), and Duke eighth (230). <\/p>\n

Maryland's Shandra Johnson was unanimously voted the meet's most valuable swimmer. She stroked to a trio of wins, taking the 500 free on opening day, coming back to win the 200 free Friday night and racing to the 100 free tonight in her first ACC meet. <\/p>\n

Johnson is a Nebraska native and swam for the Huskers for two seasons before transferring. At the 2000 Big 12s she won the 500 free-200 back and was third in the 200 free, despite a nagging back injury that had hampered her throughout the season. <\/p>\n

She also finished among the Top 16 at NCAAs in the 500 free-400 IM that season, making All-America in both events. She's the first Terp to even win the "triple Crown" for Maryland coach Jim Wenhold and she goes out her senior with a double-bang. <\/p>\n

Florida State's Chelsie Lerew was deemed the most valuable diver, sweeping the competition with first-place finishes on both the one- and three-meter boards. <\/p>\n

* * * * * <\/p>\n

Virginia began its championship quest this evening with a one-two sweep of the 1650 freestyle. Freshman Rachael Burke captured her first ACC title with a 16:11.21 clocking and senior teammate CaraLane came in second (16:21.48). Rounding out the top three was Maryland's Elizabeth Lavell (16:30.22). NCAA auto cut is 16:27.53. <\/p>\n

North Carolina's Laura Collier then won the 200 yard backstroke in 1:59.37. Virginia rookie Cory Berg was second (1:59.67), followed by Maryland's Inbal Levavi, a member of the Israeli national team (1:59.73). Only six-tenths of a second separated the top five finishers in the event. <\/p>\n

None of the finalists made the NCAA "A" cut of 1:57.70 but Collier set the Tar Heel- and ACC record of 1:57.83 at last Noivember's Nike Cup here and was unshaved for this meet. <\/p>\n

In the 100 freestyle, Maryland's Johnson claimed her third gold of the Championship with her 49.63, exactly tying the NCAA "A" cut. Virginia's Andrea Georoff, runner-uo to Carolina's Christy Watkins in the 50 free opening night, was runner-up here in 49.67 with North Carolina's Jessi Perruquet third (50.57). <\/p>\n

Maryland won its second-straight race when Jillian Martin touched first in the 200 breaststroke with a pr and Terp-record 2:12.56. North Carolina's Becky Acker was next (2:14.31) and Florida State's Emma Douton — 100 breast champ — was third (2:15.31). Martin's time is well within t he"A" standard of 2:14.13. <\/p>\n

In the final individual race of the championships, Carolina's Kelly Weeks took first in the 200 butterfly (1:59.61). Duke's Katie Ness (Elliott's daughter) placed second (2:00.14) and Virginia's Mirjana Bosevska came in third (2:00.17). <\/p>\n

Weeks set the Tar Heel- and ACC-record with her 1:58.03 in a dual-meet against Minnesota here last fall, so like Collier, she too, was unshaved for this competition. She trailed Ness for the first 140 yards before pulling ahead for the win. NCAA auto is 1:58.98 so Weeks has a free trip to Auburn next month. <\/p>\n

In three-meter diving, Florida State's Lerew retained her title by winning with a score of 504.30. Florida State's Tiffany Manning came in second with a total of 475.60. NC State freshman Molly Culberson finished third (470.45). <\/p>\n

The Championships concluded with an exciting 400 freestyle relay that saw Florida State's Seminoles finish first in a pool-record 3:20.76 — just off the "A" cut of 3:20.26. Maryland took second with its 3:22.05 and North Carolina concluded the night with a third-place finish (3:22.97). <\/p>\n

The Seminoles' Dutton anchored her team with a quick 48.49, fastest-split of the race. Johnson was a tick behind, anchoring the Terp foursome in 48.77. <\/p>\n
