"That should help a lot in getting ready for the Big Tens. As long as I keep up with my training, I should be able to get a high seed."\nSenior Leila Vaziri was impressive again, winning the 50-yard freestyle with a time of 23.59. Sophomore Allison Kay earned a first-place finish in the 400-yard individual medley with a time of 4:24.73 with freshman Amilee Smith finishing second with a time of 4:25.36.

Loukas, who has gone undefeated all year, was finally knocked off in the finals of the 3-meter diving event, earning a fourth-place finish. Teammate and fellow senior Lindsay Weigle bested Loukas, taking first place in the event.\n"I think, overall, we have better depth than in years past," Looze said. "I think we still need to work on being fast when we're tired. The girls were definitely tired, but we need to be mentally prepared to fight through it"
