The championship schedule includes 21 events spread across the four days, with preliminaries beginning at 10:00 a.m. and finals at 5:30 p.m. each day. Fans can watch the competitions on FloSwimming or follow updates on the NMU Athletics website.
In last year's GLIAC Championships, NMU's women's team secured third place with a total of 726 points, contributing to an overall second-place finish for NMU with a combined score of 1343.5 points.
NMU swimmers have shown strong performances leading up to this year's championships. Becca Burrows ranks third in both the 50-yard freestyle and 100-yard freestyle events, achieving NCAA B cuts. Elena Curti also achieved B cuts in multiple events, including ranking fourth in the 200-yard freestyle.
Camilla Carbone earned a gold medal last year in the 100-yard backstroke and was part of the winning team for the 200-yard medley relay alongside Zoe DeKievit, Meritxell Font Cantarero, and Becca Burrows.
