Arizona State Press Release

Sun Devil swimming and diving went toe-to-toe with No. 1/10 Texas, dropping their meet 184-109 on the men’s side and 177-117 on the women’s side on Friday afternoon at the Mona Plummer Aquatic Center. The meet was the second-to-the-last for ASU as they slowly turn their sights toward the postseason.

Distance freestyler Emma Nordin got the Sun Devil women started in the 1000 free, taking home first place in the event with a time of 9:42.97. That time is good for the current 12th-fastest time in Division I swimming, less than one second shy of her season-best in the event.

She finished the afternoon racking up two more wins in the 500 and 200 free events to total three on the afternoon for the junior.

“Emma Nordin was the star of the day for sure,” Bowman said. “That’s really tough swimming and we’re very proud of her.”

Silja Kansakoski also put up a strong performance on the women’s side, taking the top mark in both breaststroke events. The Finland native touched the wall two whole seconds over second place in the 100 breast and followed with a huge three second win in the 200 breast this afternoon.
