GAMBIER, Ohio -- Looking for one more opportunity to punch her ticket to the NCAA Division III Championships, Allegheny College senior Olivia Kraus (Pittsburgh, Pa./North Allegheny) swam a series of races at Kenyon College's Fast Chance Invitational on Saturday.

Kraus, who swam an NCAA "B" cut in the 100-yard freestyle at the Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) Championships, was unable to improve her standing towards a championship selection. However, she did set a new program record in the 100-yard individual medley.

In a 100-yard IM time trial, Kraus finished in 59.46 seconds. She broke the previous team record of 1:00.62 that was set by Aimee Verardi '21 in 2018.

In the 50-yard freestyle, Kraus was clocked at 23.99 seconds. The better of her two times in the 100-yard freestyle was 51.64 seconds.
