CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Harvard Women's Swimming and Diving will travel to The Garden State for its annual clashes with Yale and No. 24 Princeton. This season's HYP meet will be held at Princeton's DeNunzio Pool, Feb. 2-3. Friday's action is set for 2 p.m. ET, with Saturday scheduled for a 10 a.m. ET start. Both days will air live on ESPN+.
What to Know
- HYP will feature the Ivy League's top three teams in the conference standings. Yale and Princeton both enter the meet at 5-0 in Ivy action. The Crimson, meanwhile, comes in at 4-1, fresh off a road win at Penn on Jan. 20.
- In Harvard's 191-109 triumph over the Quakers, the Crimson captured 11 of 16 events in what was its first full-squad competition of the calendar year. Harvard's swimmers had not competed since the Minnesota Invitational back on Nov. 29-Dec. 2. The Crimson divers, however, were in action at No. 23 Florida State on Jan. 9, and won both events.
- Harvard's diving success continued in Philadelphia as they once again captured both events and more impressively, claimed the top three spots. Nina Janmyr led the way, finishing in first place on the one- and three-meter boards (1M – 298.50, 3M – 323.83). Remi Edvalson (289.35) and Amy Wotovich (288.38) came in second and third place at one meter, with Wotovich (300.45) and Katie Laverty (285.83) going 2-3 on the three-meter springboard.
- On the swimming side of things, Anya Mostek and Mandy Brenner were victorious multiple times at Penn. Mostek won the 100 back (54.29) and the 100 free (51.29), with Brenner emerging victorious in the 50 free (23.60). The duo was also a part of two winning relays (200 medley – 1:43.83, 400 free – 3:24.72).
- Molly Hamlin enjoyed a solid outing vs. the Quakers, winning the 200 back (2:01.06) and swimming the anchor leg of the victorious 400 free relay.
- Harvard enters HYP looking for its first full sweep since 2013-14, and its first win over either Yale or Princeton since 2018-19, when it defeated the Tigers, but fell to the Bulldogs.
- The Crimson's success at HYP, however, has not been indicative of its performance at the Ivy League Championships. Harvard has finished either first or second at the league meet since the aforementioned 2013-14 campaign, winning titles in 2014, 2016, 2018, 2019, and 2022.
