Vassar freshman Julia Cunningham had a very memorable Seven Sisters championships. She earned an NCAA B-cut in the 400 Yard IM with a time of 4:31.89. Cunningham finished second in the event behind top swimmer of the meet from Mount Holyoke, Cathleen Pruden. Cunningham also broke her own 100 Yard Fly and 200 Yard Fly records on Saturday and Sunday. She won both events with her time of 58.00 in the 100 and a time of 2:06.44 in the 200. She met the time for the NCAA B-cut in the 200 Fly earlier in the year but was 0.27 from her third B-cut in the 100 Fly. Cunningham teamed with McKenzie Quinn, Olivia Harries and Milee Nelson for a third place finish in the 800 Free Relay (8:15.22) and then with Quinn Elizabeth Balter and Lily Frye in the 400 Free Relay for a fourth spot placing (3:50.97).
