INDIANAPOLIS (SMU) – Sophomore Katie Crown set an American Athletic Conference Championships record to win one meter on the opening night of competition at The American Championships. The four-day event is being held at the IUPUI Natatorium in Indianapolis.
Crown posted a career-best 309.45 to lead the eight-diver Championship Final, which was capped off by a 55.90 in round six to seal the victory. Classmate Taylor Ohlhauser also competed in the top final, placing eighth, while Johanna Holloway won the Consolation Final (ninth overall) with a career-best 277.00 and Giovanna Hnath placed 13th overall.
Crown, Ohlhauser and Holloway have now all achieved the NCAA Zone qualifying score on one meter this season.
In relay action, Felicity Passon, Andrea Podmanikova, Erin Trahan and Gabi Grobler were narrowly out-touched by .18 in the 200-yard medley relay, finishing in a season-best time of 1:37.65 for runner-up honors.
Olivia Grossklaus, Madison Kinsey, Grobler and El Yellin also teamed up for a season-best 7:20.83 in the 800-yard freestyle relay, placing them fifth.
SMU ranks tied for second in the team scores with Connecticut at 106. Houston leads the field with 116.
The Championships resume for day two action on Thursday with the 500-yard freestyle, 200-yard individual medley, 50-yard freestyle and 200-yard freestyle relay. Visit The American's Championships Central for all your meet information.
