DALLAS (SMU) – Four Mustangs posted NCAA cuts to lead SMU to second place in the standings after night one of the SMU Invitational at the Robson & Lindley Aquatics Center and Barr-McMillion Natatorium. The three-day event continues through Saturday.

Erin Trahan and Gabi Grobler both won individual events, coming in under the NCAA B standard on Thursday evening, while Nicole Stambo and Katie Crown posted NCAA Zone qualifying scores on 1 meter.

Trahan continued her dominance in the butterfly, posting a season-best 52.83 to win the 100 fly Championship Final, and teammate Valentina Becerra (55.30) joined her in the A Final with an eighth place finish. Trahan (22.91) was also fourth in the Championship Final of the 50-yard freestyle.

Grobler's versatility continues to be on display with her victory in the 200-yard individual medley, as she posted her first-career NCAA B cut with a finals time of 1:59.49. Janelle Gursoy (2:03.41) was seventh in the race.

Olivia Grossklaus (4:52.33) and Frederica Kizek (4:53.51) led SMU in the 500-yard freestyle, finishing fourth and seventh, respectively.

Both Mustang relays finished second with Trahan, Sam Smith, Grobler and Gursoy opening the evening with a season-best 1:32.02 in the 200-yard freestyle relay and Felicia Anderson, Grobler, Trahan and Smith closing the evening with another season-topping time of 3:38.25 in the 400-yard medley relay.
