Audrey Reimer broke a pair of records at the Don Reddish Pool on Friday night, part of four records broken or tied by Utah in a 176-124 win over BYU.
Reimer led the way with a pair of wins. She clocked in at 54.19 seconds in the 100 backstroke and 1:56.81 to win the 200 back.
Utah also set a pool mark in the 200 medley relay, with the foursome of Emma Broome, Charity Pittard, Emma Lawless and Maddie Woznick going 1:41.09, edging BYU’s A relay by .14 seconds. Woznick won the 100 freestyle in a time of 50.22, tying the pool record.
Utah won 10 of 16 events on the day. The Utes hit their stride mid-meet, with Woznick’s win in the 50 free (in 23.20, by .01 over BYU’s Gwen Gustafson) setting off a run of seven wins in eight events around the diving competitions, in which Lexi Mills and Lizzie DeCecco went 1-2 both times.
Woznick followed the one-meter result with the 100 free win and Reimer with the 200 back. Sarah McClendon, who paced a 1-2-3 finish in the 1,000 free, added a win in the 500, and Lawless claimed the 100 fly.
BYU also claimed four pool records, led by three from Katie McBratney in a stellar outing. She went 1:02.46 in the 100 breaststroke, then 2:15.59 in the 200 breast, each time just beating Pittard. McBratney also clocked in at 2:01.90 in the 200 individual medley, a 1-2 finish with Summer Murphy.
Brynn Sproul and Chloe Freeman won the 200 free and 200 fly, respectively, before the first diving break. Sproul and Gustafson teamed with Rachel Oyler and Emma Colvin to go 1:32.97 to win the 200 free relay – setting a pool record and edging Utah’s foursome (Woznick, Lawless, Reagan Cathcart, Reimer) by .09 seconds – but it was too late for the team race.
