BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION-Texas – The No. 25 Texas A&M women's swimming and diving team added another win to its season over Georgia Tech, 192-103. The Aggies, however, lost their first matchup of the year to the No. 2 Texas Longhorns by a score of 148-115.  

The quad of Miranda Grana, Bobbi Kennett, Olivia Theall and Chloe Stepanek began the competition in a dominating fashion, picking up the win in the 400 medley relay with a time of 3:30.31. 

Grana shined once again for the Maroon & White, claiming her best times of the season in the 100 (52.01) and 200 back (1:53.30). Stepanek earned a win of her own in the 200 free, clocking in her best time of the year at 1:44.15. 

Hayden Miller made her mark in Texas A&M history by breaking the school record in the 1000 free, touching the wall at 9:33.45. The previous record was 9:33.76 set by Sarah Henry in 2013. 

Theall (1:55.82), Sarah Holt (1:57.62) and Katie Walker (1:56.75) all notched NCAA B cuts in the 200 butterfly. Additionally, Theall and Holt hit cuts in the 100 fly, clocking in at 52.19 and 53.13, respectively. 

The Aggies added four more B cuts by way of breaststroke and backstroke. Kennett's second-place finish in the 100 breast qualified her with a time of 1:00.01. Charlotte Longbottom qualified in the same event, registering a final time of 1:00.50. Abigail Ahrens and Aviv Barzelay hit cuts with qualifying times of 1:55.41 and 1:56.77 in the 200 back. 

Joslyn Oakley swept the springboards, turning in a score of 306.15 on the 1-meter and a season-best 349.58 on the 3-meter. Freshman Chloe McKnight's career-high score of 286.73 on the 3-meter was enough to qualify for the NCAA Zones Championship.

The Aggies are prepared to host the annual Art Adamson Invite at the Rec Center Natatorium Nov. 15-17. LSU, Utah, Washington State, Houston and San Diego State will all make the trip to Aggieland for a big week at the pool.
