Crye made waves in her individual events, breaking the school record in the 50-yard butterfly (24.33) and notching the second-fastest time in the 100-yard butterfly (52.98). She was part of the school-record 200-yard medley relay team, alongside freshman Ellie Schrank, sophomore Julie Rose, and graduate student Jessica Davis. The relay team finished with a time of 1:36.90.
On the men's side, Gubeno delivered a standout performance, setting three school records in the 50-yard backstroke, 100-yard backstroke, and 200-yard individual medley. Gubeno entered the 200-yard backstroke finals as the top seed but ultimately placed second overall.
Schrank made a name for herself in the UC record books after grabbing the 50-yard backstroke school record (24.81) and recording the third-fastest time in the 100-yard backstroke (53.72). She also appeared in three different relays this weekend.
