Freshmen Kate Nadeau broke Chock's 200-yard butterfly record from earlier this season. Nadeau clocked a 2:02.41 en route to an HYP victory, lowering Chock's time of 2:03.26 from a November scrimmage.
Both athletes were untapered and unshaved and both times are NCAA provisional qualifying standards.
"It says a lot about our program and our training," sophomore Lovisa Gustafsson said. "Both of our girls were able to step it up. Knowing that they were capable of breaking those records before Ivies is awesome and we are very proud of them."
Several Harvard swimmers broke into and ascended the team's All-Time Top 10 list with personal best times and best-untapered swims.
Senior Lillian Brown shaved down and swam to personal bests en route to a fifth place finish in the 200-yard freestyle and third in the 400-yard individual medley. Brown clocked 1:52.78 and 4:29.43, respectively.
"I raced well and I had fun racing," Brown said. "This was the fastest dual meet I have swum at in my four years and this sets the team up very well for Ivies in a few weeks. We're ready to compete and they won't be expecting us"
Sophomore backstroker Jessi Walter obliterated her personal bests with team leading performances. She finished third in both the 100 and 200-yard backstrokes, clocking times of 57.66 and 2:03.91, respectively.
"I looked at the clock and didn't think it was my time," Walter said of her 100-yard race. "This was my first full season of training and I am very pleased and excited with the results so far."
