The Anderson University women's swimming and diving team recorded 45 season bests during the three-day Gail Pebworth Invitational, which concluded on Sunday in Crawfordsville.

COACH NATHAN MANLEY'S COMMENTS
- Our swimmers gave a great effort at our mid-season meet. We had over 90% season bests, tons of personal bests and broke three school records.
- Our middle-distance and distance freestylers were really impressive this weekend. Some good swimming would be expected from them on short rest, but we had 14 swims between the men's and women's 500's and 1,650's. 100 percent were season bests and 12 of the 14 were career bests.
- Our freshmen as a group handled the meet really well. Some of them had not been challenged with a multi-day prelim/finals meet before but they posted 11 career marks out of their 16 individual swims and all 16 swims were season bests.
