Heading into the final day of the 63rd annual MAC swimming championships, the race for the championship has not been closer in years. Misericordia and Widener are within four points of each other for the women, and Albright, Misericordia, and Widener men's teams have 19 points separating the three of them. It may all come down to the last race. Yesterday, besides several dance exhibitions, the Lebanon Valley Flying Dutchman led a line dance that included swimmers and coaches. Today’s highlight features the cannon ball contest prior to finals at 5 PM. The senior recognition at 4:45 is an emotional time for all involved.

Many long-time records fell yesterday:

The Misericordia men’s 200 medley relay team wet a pool, MAC, and championship record with a mark of 1.33.78; in a time trail later in the evening they lowered that time to 1:33.33.

Laura Harris, a Widener FY, topped pool, MAC, and championship records in the 100 fly with a time of 56.96.

Lycoming’s Stacy Flick set new pool and championship records in the 100 breast with a mark of 1:06.13.

Jeff Clark, Misericordia senior, set pool, MAC, and championship record in the 100 breast.

Katelynn Sagaser, a Messiah transfer, topped old MAC and championship records with a 58.74 in the 100 back.

Albright’s senior Chris Sheerer established new pool and championship standards in the 100 back with a time of 51.67.

Today other records will fall as the team championship battle continues!
