Vitort and Hogg set pool records in the meet to lead the Broncos.
SAN DIEGO, Calif. - Molly Hogg and Lauren Vitort set pool records Friday afternoon at the UC San Diego Quad Meet to lead Boise State to a 2-1 mark. Boise State's win streak in duals increased to 14-0 with victories over UC San Diego (220-79) and UC Davis (218-81) before it came to an end in a tight loss to Mountain West rival San Diego State (154-145). The 2-1 result at the quad meet improves the Broncos to 4-1 overall on the year.
"I'm really happy with the result today," said Boise State head coach Christine Mabile. "I thought we swam fast against some good teams and we were faster than last week. Any time you can increase your speed from the previous week and as the season progresses is a good thing. I thought we were solid today and had some great performances, Lauren (Vitort) and Molly (Hogg) both set pool records. Lauren is such a competitor for us, she's fierce in the pool and a good teammate out if it. All a round it was a good result for us."
Boise State won six events in the overall meet and set three pool records in the 200 freestyle, 200 backstroke and 200 freestyle relay. In addition, 15 swimmers combined to record 24 NCAA B standard times, while one diver earned two NCAA Zone qualifying scores.
Boise State's top team in both relays set NCAA B cut times with the 200 medley (Ally Kleinsorgen, Laura Williams, Robin Pinger, Abbey Sorensen) placing second overall with a 1:43.31 and the 200 free relay (Sorensen, Pinger, Kleinsorgen, Emmie Jennings) winning the race clocking a 1:33.61 which was also a pool record.
Freshman Lauren Vitort had another impressive showing for Boise State by winning the 200 free with a Canyon View Aquatic Center record and season-personal-best time of 1:49.52.

Hayley Hill claimed her second title of the year in the 1,000 freestyle with a 10:13.11, nearly five seconds faster than second place. The sophomore then took fourth in the 500 free (4:59.87). Both results were season best and NCAA B cut times.
Ally Kleinsorgen recorded two NCAA B cuts the first winning in 100 back with a time of 55.60. The senior then took third in the 100 free with a season-best time of 51.65.
