In Friday's prelims, Calvin freshman Rebekah Weima of Grand Rapids Christian
High School shattered her second school and MIAA record in as many days as she
clocked in with an NCAA A' cut qualifying time of 1:50.94, shattering her own
school record of 1:51.99 and the MIAA record of 1:54.90 set by Calvin's Katie
Nagelkirk at the 2003 MIAA Championships. Weima's time is believed to be the
fastest time in NCAA III women's swimming and diving this year. On Thursday,
Weima shattered the Calvin and MIAA record in the 50 freestyle with a time of
23.79 in the morning prelims.

Friday's championship finals are set to begin at 6:00 p.m. this evening.
