ATLANTA - Lucy Bell added her second ACC title of the week, capping off a runner-up finish for No. 2 Stanford at the ACC Swimming & Diving Championships on Saturday evening.
Bell claimed the 200 breast crown with a 2:02.67, resetting her own Stanford record for the third time this season. Bell was neck-and-neck with Virginia's Aimee Canny for a majority of the race, but a 31.39 final 50 yards allowed her to pull ahead late and clinch the conference championship.
Addie Robillard also reached her first career ACC final in the event, finishing sixth with a lifetime-best 2:07.39, good for ninth in program history. Caroline Bricker finished 10th overall with a 2:07.23 time, while Lucy Thomas also qualified for the "B" final but was disqualified after a non-simultaneous touch.
The 100 free final saw three Cardinal set new Stanford Top 10 marks, highlighted by Torri Huske breaking the 46-second barrier for the first time in her career with a runner-up time of 45.79. Annam Olasewere finished sixth with a 47.17 to climb to No. 5 in program history, while Gigi Johnson (47.84) finished 8th after clocking a 47.48 in the prelims for the seventh-fastest mark in the Stanford ranks.
The 200 back saw Natalie Mannion (1:51.96) and Kayla Wilson (1:53.29) each post season-best times to finish 11th and 18th, respectively, while Levenia Sim clocked a 1:54.29 to finish 22nd overall.
Bailey O'Regan turned in the Cardinal's best result in the 1650 free with a 16:24.59 time to finish 11th, while Sophie Duncan placed 25th with a 16:51.05 effort. The week of action came to a close with the 400 freestyle relay, where the quartet of Huske, Olasewere, Johnson, and Thomas finished fourth with a 3:08.72.
Stanford finished the week with 1039 points, only trailing Virginia, which won their seventh consecutive ACC title with 1410.5 points. California (1027.5), Louisville (925), and NC State (851.5) rounded out the top five.
The postseason continues with the NCAA Diving Zones on March 9-11, before the 2025-26 campaign concludes at the NCAA Championships on March 18-21.
