FEDERAL WAY, Wash. – Utah Women's Swimming wrapped up competition at the Pac-12 Championships with some more strong showings and record-breaking performances.

The top moment came early in the day as Sarah Lott set a new school record in the prelims of the 200 back. The sophomore recorded a NCAA B cut time of 1:56.49 to qualify for the "B" final this evening.
In the 100 free, Gillian St. John swam a NCAA B cut time of 49.78 in the prelims, which was also the sixth-fastest time in Utah history. She would then finish third in the "C" final during the evening session. Senior Dorien Butter also competed in the "C" final with a NCAA B cut time of 49.84.
The 200 breast was Utah's most successful event of the evening as it placed three swimmers in tonight's finals. Genny Robertson, who finished sixth last year, was second in the "B" final with a NCAA B cut time of 2:10.85. Darby Wayner placed third in the "C" final with the fifth-fastest time in Utah history (2:15.60) and during the prelims, Grace Horvath notched the seventh-fastest mark at 2:16.20
After last night's performance, Jordan Anderson returned to the pool and finished third in the "C" final of the 200 fly with a NCAA B cut time of 1:58.83. Christina Pick reached the "C" finals for a second-straight time with the fifth-fastest time in Utah history (1:59.64).
Â
In other results, Mandy Gebhart placed 18th in the 1650 free with a time of 16:42.61. On the boards, Emma Ruchala finished 18th in the platform and in the final event of the evening, the 400 free relay of Butter, St. John, Ianire Casarin and Claire Jackson placed eighth with a time of 3:21.91
The Utes finished seventh in the competition with No. 1 Stanford taking the title. The Cardinal topped rival and No. 2 ranked Cal for their second-straight Pac-12 championship.
