Two new records established by QC Women's Swim team at Championships

After three consecutive days of exceptional swimming performances at the 2010 Metropolitan Swimmimg Championships, the Queens College Women's Swim team came away with two school records and a 10th place finish out of 21 teams.

In her first appearance at the Mets, Sissi Ribeiro shattered the 100 butterfly and 200 butterfly records, marks that had stood since 2001, in times of 1:01.85 and 2:15.05. Each record earned her 11th place finishes to go along with a 13th place finish in the 200 IM.
