"We had hoped to sweep both
boards," tri-captain Ali Shipley said. "I think we were really excited to go to an unfamiliar pool for an intense contest. We not only maintained composure but also excelled on all of our hard dives."
Chock added a victory in the 200-yard freestyle in 1:51.50. She finished second in the 100-yard butterfly and the 100-yard freestyle in 57.09 and 52.19, respectively.
McDougall fought off illness to squeak out a win in the 200-yard backstroke. Crimson teammate Katie Wilbur touched second in the event.
Despite some outstanding swims, Harvard couldn't match up with Brown's star-power and depth.
Brown took both the 200-medley relay and the 400-freestyle relay.
Freshmen Elizabeth Daniels claimed the 50 freestyle for the Bears with a time of 23.87 and then went on to win the 100 free in 51.89. Brown junior Judy Koonstra also won both the 100 and 200 butterfly in times of 57.03 and 2:02.70.
The Crimson will have to wait until the Ivy Championships in February to test the waters against Brown again.
