The University of Louisville women's swim team, which posted 31 points after Day 1, completed its second day prelims at the 2009 Women's NCAA Swimming Championships held on the campus of Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas.
The Cardinals 200-medley relay team of Whitney Campbell, Therese Bergstrom, Nicole Landisch and Anna Dishuck combined to post a time of 1:40.38 which shattered the school record of a year ago but fell just short of their qualifying mark this year and tonight's finals.
In the 200-free, Liz Halet went 1:48.66 with Therese Bergstrom touching at 1:01.41 in the 100-breast. Both marks will not hold up for tonight's finals.
The 2009 NCAA Championships will be live streamed in a cooperative effort between Swimming World and ESPN. Five of the first six sessions of both the NCAA men's and women's championship meets will be covered by Swimming World while ESPN360 will step in to cover Saturday night finals only. Swimming World will also provide highlight packages, on-demand race footage, and post-race interviews. The live stream will be available at both SwimmingWorldMagazine.com and NCAA.com. ESPN2 will broadcast the women's meet on a tape-delayed basis with a 90-minute show on March 26 at 3:30 Eastern.
