The men took five of the eight events highlighted by meet record time of 2:00.45 by Troy Esentan in the 200 Breaststroke. In the 100 butterfly, the Eagles put forth the one-two punch with Owen Grey touching the wall at 1:51.30 followed by Aaron Lawson in second with a time of 1:51.97.
Justin Griggs boasted a first place finish in the 100 freestyle posting a time of 45.29, and he also joined teammates Dylan Kab, Jacob Hanson, and Matt Zavislak in winning the 400 freestyle relay in 3:02.70.
On the women's side, Michigan currently sits in first after winning three of the day's events. Briana Emig shattered a pool record in the 1,650 free, finishing first in 16:22.03 marking a three-second improvement on the previous record that was set in 2008.
In the 100 free, Sarah Kowalski narrowly edged Michigan's Natasha Moody, touching the wall just two-hundredths of a second faster at 51.36 for the victory.
