Nixon teamed with sophomore Lisa D’Olier and freshman Hannah Pawlewicz in claiming the 150 butterfly relay. D’Olier was also a member of the winning 200 medley relay, along with seniors Kelly Hecking and Allison Lloyd and freshman Katie Eckholt.

Hecking won her 10th individual race of the season, taking the 75 backstroke in 42.23. Sophomore Danielle Hulick was second in 42.71, while freshman Kristen Peterson and sophomore Jessica Roberts closed out the Notre Dame one-two-three-four finish in 43.54 and 43.66, respectively. Hecking, Hulick and Peterson also teamed to win the 150 backstroke relay in 1:21.20.

Lloyd also had a good meet as she won two individual events claiming the 75 breaststroke and the 75 butterfly. Sophomore Lisa Garcia was also a double-event winner as she was first in the 300 freestyle and the 300 individual medley.

Freshman Kelli Barton was the other individual event winner, outdistancing the field in the 600 freestyle in a time of 6:03.12. Junior Nicole Kohrt was second (6:16.92) and classmate Lindsay Moorhead was third (6:14.68).
