A Year in Review:
The Horned Frogs completed a memorable regular season with three swimmers earning B-cuts and six Frogs holding new all-time program records.
Multiple Frogs currently hold times and scores held top five in the conference.
On the boards, David Ekdahl and Anna Kwong hold the highest score so far this season in the Big 12. Ekdahl dove a 430.20 in the 3-meter with teammates Max Burman (404.45) behind Ekdahl and Ollie Cazaly (389.90) holding the fourth position. In the 1-meter Kwong leads all other female competitors on the 1-meter at 324.65. The dive team has impressive all year with Zone cuts going to Ekdahl, Burman, Alec Hubbard, Cazaly, Kwong, Lauren Cey, Gracie Liang, Faith Harms-Zacharias and Leah Fletcher.
In the pool, Geremia Freri has impressive in year two. The sophomore broke two school records at Art Adamson in the 200 fly and the 200 individual medley. Both those times have earned him B-cuts this season. Raphael Pavia Da Lima has proved to be one of the best short distance swimmers in the Big 12 this season. In the 50 and 100 freestyle, the sophomore has B-cuts in both events and the fastest time in program history in the 50.
