The Season so Far
UCLA has finished first in every competition it's entered so far this season except for two, winning the five-team Fresno State Invitational to begin the year. The Bruins followed those strong results with a fourth-place finish at the Ohio State Invitational. The field featured three squads ranked in the top 15 at the time of the meet, plus UCLA.
After the Ohio State Invitational, the Bruins went to Las Vegas for the FINIS UNLV Invitational. At the meet the Bruins finished the 2024 portion of the calendar strongly, taking first place in the six-team field.
As for the dual meet calendar, UCLA beat Arizona, 189-106, on senior day at the Spieker Aquatics Center, and also took dual meet wins over UC Santa Barbara in Salt Lake city, Utah, and UC San Deigo in San Diego.
The Bruins head into the Big Ten Championships fresh off of setting school records over the last few weeks. Both the 200 medley relay and the 400 medley relay set school records at the meets at Stanford and Cal. The quartet of Fay Lustria, Eva Carlson, Emma Harvey, and Ana Jih-Schiff set the 200 medley relay record standard at 1:36.36, while Lustria, Karolina Piechowicz, Emma Harvey and Jih-Schiff followed suit one day later in the 400 medley relay setting the new standard at 3:31.94.
Piechowicz, a freshman from Sczcytno, Poland, also set a new school record in the 100 breast, touching the wall in 59.28 at the dual meet at USC two weeks ago.
