There was nothing leisurely about Kansas’ mid-afternoon swim at Robinson Natatorium Thursday, but it sure was fun. The Jayhawks opened the meet with seven straight event wins and claimed the top spot in 13 out of 16 to hand Big 12 foe TCU a 190-108 loss. Kansas improved to 3-0 in dual meets this season and 3-0 in televised home meets over the last three seasons.
Haley Bishop, Haley Downey and Yulya Kuchkarova each contributed to relay and individual event wins before the Horned Frogs were able to get on the board with a win in the three-meter diving. The Jayhawks won eight straight swimming events when Breonna Barker claimed the 100-yard freestyle before Elise Forzely stopped the run by winning the 200-yard backstroke.
“Swimmers are very observant of what’s going on around them, especially when they look at the scoreboard,” Kansas head coach Clark Campbell said. “You win one race and the next they think, ‘We don’t want to be the first event that loses.’ It kind of spurs them on.
“TCU’s Forzely is a really good kid, we recruited her, we knew she was going to be tough to beat today. It really adds a lot to the next event when the event right before you does so well. We were kind of feeding off each other’s performances and each other’s energy and came away with a really good meet.”
