I didn&#8217;t do the 200 medley at ACCs, so I have no idea what I would have been there, but I don&#8217;t think it would have been that fast. I am really happy with that time. I was nervous being the first leg of the first event of the meet. I was just happy I nailed my start and from there, everything just carried forward and these ladies closed it out,&#8221; Walsh said. &#8220;It is a huge statement (that we were so close to the record) because we were seeded second in the event &#8211; a little bit of underdog. Having that as our first event of the meet is a good teller of how we are all going to perform at this meet. Making memories like that is exciting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jasmine Nocentini<\/strong> took over in the breaststroke and held the lead before <strong>Carly Novelline<\/strong> took over and got to the wall with a body lead.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is definitely a new experience. It is kind of a dream to be an All-American and then being on the podium means even more,&#8221; Nocentini said. &#8220;It was exciting to see how we came out and performed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For Novelline, it was her first relay ever at the NCAA Championships.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is the first time I have done a relay at this level. It was everything I hoped for and more,&#8221; she said. &#8220;It is definitely something I will cherish the rest of my life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maxine Parker<\/strong> dove in with the lead and kept it as the Cavaliers won in 1:31.58. Parker closed in 21.38.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It definitely takes a lot of pressure off when you dive in ahead. That makes you just want to carry it home for them,&#8221; Parker said. &#8220;We just wanted to start out with some momentum.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It was just seven hundredths of a second off the last year&#8217;s NCAA record and broke the pool record.<\/p>\n<p>But that team had both Walsh sisters and <strong>Kate Douglass<\/strong> on it.<\/p>\n<p>This relay had one Walsh sister and showed the depth this Virginia program really has.<\/p>\n<p>Ohio State finished NCAA runner-up in 1:33.09 behind <strong>Nyah Funderburke, Hannah Bach, Katherine Zenick<\/strong> and <strong>Teresa Ivan<\/strong>. It also broke the previous pool record.<\/p>\n<p>NC State touched the wall third in 1:33.48 but was disqualified for an early takeoff in the third exchange.<\/p>\n<p>Third place went to Florida&#8217;s <strong>Aris Runnels, Molly Mayne, Olivia Peoples<\/strong> and <strong>Mikayla Cronk<\/strong> in 1:34.30.<\/p>\n<p>Fourth place went to Cal with<strong> Isabelle Stadden, Jade Neser, Mia Kragh<\/strong> and <strong>Stephanie Akakabota<\/strong> finishing in 1:34.55.<\/p>\n<p>Tennessee&#8217;s <strong>Josephine Fuller, Mona McSharry, Sara Stotler<\/strong> and <strong>Amber Myers<\/strong> took fifth in 1:34.64.<\/p>\n<p>Sixth went to Texas&#8217; <strong>Emma Kern, Anna Elendt, Emma Sticklen a<\/strong>nd <strong>Grace Cooper<\/strong> (1:34.74).<\/p>\n<p>USC took seventh behind <strong>Caroline Famous, Kaitlyn Dobler, Anicka Delgado<\/strong> and <strong>Minna<\/strong> <strong>Abraham<\/strong> (1:34.81).<\/p>\n<p>Stanford won the second of three heats and finished eighth in 1:35.10.<\/p>\n<p>There were three heats that encompassed the timed NCAA final.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/swimmeetresults.tech\/NCAA-Division-I-Women-2024\/\" target=\"_blank\"
