KU’s Miller sets pool mark

Kansas University senior swimmer Chelsie Miller broke a Robinson Natatorium record Saturday while winning the 400 individual medley.

Miller recorded a time of 4:18.37 in a double dual against Denver and Missouri State. The Jayhawks defeated Missouri State, 277-69, and fell to Denver, 188-162.

“It was kind of surprising,” Miller said. “I saw the coaches on the side getting a little excited, so I knew something was up. It’s really cool to be this fast this early in the year.”

Miller also won the 500-yard freestyle in 4:57.44.

KU’s Haley Molden won the 100-yard freestyle in 51.78, Graylyn Jones and Nadia Khechfe went one-two in three-meter diving, and KU’s 200-yard freestyle relay team of Haley Bishop, Molden, Pia Pavlic and Hannah Driscoll took second in 1:36.33. Madison Straight (2:03.17) and Sammie Schurig (2:04.25) took second and third in the 200-yard backstroke.

The Jayhawks will face TCU on Saturday in Fort Worth, Texas.
