The quartet of Olivia Dower, Roma Taitwood, Maya Farwell and Mary Mendez finished with a time of 4:09.98 in the 400 Free Relay to qualify and give the Raptors points for the evening finals. The men finished with 141 points while the women finished with 139 points. 

"This has been fantastic for us," said head coach John Weitz. "I am extremely proud of this year's team. Their improvements at this meet have been outstanding."
