GREENWOOD, Ind. – The UIndy swimming & diving teams topped a star-studded field at the UIndy Invitational Saturday and Sunday, held both on campus at the Ruth Lilly Fitness Center and in nearby Greenwood, Ind., at the Center Grove Aquatics Center. At a meet that featured a combined nine top-eight teams from last spring's NCAA DII Championships, senior Johanna Buys set a high-profile individual record while leading the women's 200 free relay squad to a strong B-cut time.
 
Buys highlighted the meet with a lightning-fast first leg of the 200 FR. The Lusaka, Zambia native broke her own UIndy 50 free record with a time of 22.52  – which would have won the event national championship last year. She was joined in the relay by Leticia Vaselli, Julia Magierowska and Krystal Caylor, as the quartet notched an NCAA provisional mark of 1:32.36.
