Scoring System:
Here’s where it gets interesting! Each race is a head-to-head showdown, with the winner earning one point. But there’s a twist: the overall winner of each race gets an additional point. So, keep an eye on those close races, as they could swing the overall score significantly.
Women’s 400 Medley Relay:
Michigan’s ‘A’ relay dominated, with Bella Sims leading off in a blistering 49.97. Letitia Sim, Brady Kendall, and Leila Fack followed with impressive splits, securing the win for the Wolverines in 3:25.54. Tennessee’s Camille Spink anchored her team to a strong second place with a 46.25 split.
Men’s 400 Medley Relay:
Michigan continued their strong showing, taking the win over Tennessee.
And this is the part most people miss…
The scoring system adds an extra layer of strategy. With each race being a head-to-head battle, teams must carefully select their swimmers to maximize their points.
