ATHENS, Ohio (EMUEagles.com)—After day two of the Mid-American Conference Swimming and Diving Championships in Athens, Ohio, the Eastern Michigan University women's swimming and diving team improves to fourth place with 160 points through seven events.
Briana Emig (Sewickley, Pa.-Ambridge) took home a third place medal for the Green and White with her time of 4:46.78 in the 500 freestyle final. Her time broke the Ohio pool record of 4:48.00 and also represents a career best.
In the 200 IM, Jacquelyn Swartz (Centerville, Ohio-Centerville) scored points for the Eagles as she placed seventh with her season best time of 2:03.23, while Sarah Kowalski's (Muncie, Ind.-Yorktown) 50 freestyle performance of 23.10 bested a pool record and also earned her a fifth place finish. Not only was it a top season performance for the senior, but it also represents the fastest time in her career for the 50 freestyle.
The duo of Lesley Vizurraga (Grand Rapids, Mich.-Forest Hills Central) and Kelly Hendricks (Schaumburg, Ill.-Conant) went 3-4 on the one-meter dive. Vizurraga tallied 282.40 points for a third pace medal, while Hendricks earned 272.65 points in fourth place for EMU. Christina Nunez-Wood (Denver, Colo.-Bear Creek) came in sixth for the Eagles with a 250.55 effort.
