Kate Brush and
Selma Jukic captured the women's race in a time of 4:19.46.

Peyton Classon won the diving competition, which consisted of 11 dives off the 1-meter board, while

Other individual winners included Moore-Frederick (200 breaststroke), Jukic (100 backstroke),

Maddie Amick (100 breaststroke). The Tigers captured the final race of the meet as
Kerren Matthews,

On the men's side, twins Cade and

Michael Wright,
Reese Gawronski and

Julian Frerichs,
Eric Dallesasse and
Walker Martin. Frerichs also captured a pair of individual races, the 100- and 200 backstroke events, while Martin and Shepherd won the 100 and 1000 freestyle races, respectively.
Mac O'Brien and

"It was fun to swim at sea level tonight," head coach
Anne Goodman James said. "We could really feel the difference and experienced big time drops in longer events like the 200 fly, 400 IM and 1000 free. We were challenged quite a bit in the first two events (the medley relays and the 1000 free), but then we really took control starting with the 200 free and forward."
Both teams will compete at the Phoenix Fall Classic in Chicago next weekend, Nov. 22-24.
