AUSTIN, Texas – The Kansas women’s swimming & diving team concluded day two of the Big 12 Swimming & Diving Championships, which saw junior Kate Steward swim a school record 1:58.00 in the 200-yard individual medley inside Lee and Joe Jamail Texas Swimming Center on Thursday.
“She is getting it done at every level, in and out of the pool,” Head Coach Clark Campbell said of Steward. “Chelsie Miller was one of our best swimmers in Jayhawk history, for her to set a record held by Chelsie is a big deal.”
Steward’s time of 1:58.00 breaks the school record of 1:58.37 set previously by Chelsie Miller at the 2014-15 Big 12 Championships, while also earning the ‘B’ standard for the NCAA Championships.
