M. Swimming Wins Sixth EISL Title, while Women Take Fourth at Ivies

Several Harvard seniors, led by tri-captains Pia Chock and Angie Peluse, turned in the most impressive performances of their careers. Chock finished sixth in the 100-yard butterfly, seventh in the 200-yard freestyle and 3rd in the 200-yard fly. Her mark of 2:01.98 set a new team record, which had been previously held by sophomore Lovisa Gustafsson.

Peluse recorded five personal best times at Ivies, and senior Lillian Brown was a consolation finalist in three events, recording personal best times in every event that she entered.

Senior diver Camilla McLean finished fourth on the three-meter board, and captain Ali Shipley, who had been out all season with an ankle injury, returned to place eighth on the one-meter board.

Even with the loss of a talented senior class, the Crimson will attempt to improve on this season's performance with a new crop of talented recruits who will help Harvard keep up with the rest of the Ivy League, which has become much faster in recent years. This season Gustafsson, sophomore Jane Humphries and junior Janna McDougall have proven themselves capable of continuing in their predecessors' footsteps.
