COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Arkansas sent its most athletes through to the evening finals so far this week, as four swimmers competed Saturday night.

Action began Saturday morning with the 200 butterfly prelims, where Arkansas sent two to the evening finals, as senior Jessie Garrison punched her ticket to the B-final, swimming a season-best 1:57.52 in the prelims. Junior Marlena Pigliacampi earned a spot in the C-final with a time of 1:58.67 in the prelims.

In the finals, Garrison topped her prelim time, clocking a personal-best 1:57.41 to finish fourth in the B-final. Pigliacampi found herself in a three-way tie for third in the C-final, turning in a time of 1:58.70.

Seniors Chelsea Tatlow and Taylor Weiss also swam in the 200 fly, finishing sixth and eighth respectively in the fifth prelim heat. Tatlow’s prelim time of 2:00.07 was good for 29th overall, while Weiss’ time of 2:01.20 earned her a 36th-place showing.

Junior Madison Umberger was the lone Razorback to compete in the 100 back, finishing fourth in her heat, 44th overall in a season-best 56.04.

Along with the 200 fly, Arkansas sent two swimmers to the finals of the 100 breast. Seniors Madison Strathman and Sydney Angell earned spots in the C-final of the event, as Strathman touched in a then-season-best 1:01.55 in the prelims, while Angell turned in a then-personal best in the prelims with a time of 1:01.86.

In the finals, both recorded personal bests, as Angell touched second in the C-final in 1:01.36, while Strathman followed in third in 1:01.49.

Senior Madison Edwards also competed in the 200 fly prelims, touching in a season-best 1:04.33 for a fourth-place finish in her heat, finishing 36th overall.

In the evening relay, Arkansas’ quartet of Chloe Hannam, Angell, Olivia Weekley and Annah Carney, touched eighth in the 400 medley relay for a 8th-place finish in 3:37.41, the third-fastest time in school history.

Championship Sunday will begin 10 a.m. tomorrow morning with the preliminary round of the 200 backstroke, 100 freestyle, 200 breaststroke and the platform dive. The finals will begin at 6 p.m. and will be televised on SEC Network.
