The Houston swimming and diving program began its first season in the Big 12 conference at the Dust off Your Boots Invitational in Austin against the Longhorns.
Two new top-10 program times were set by freshman Elizabeth Jimenez. The Dominican Republic native swam a 55.30 in the 100-yard backstroke, good for 10th all-time as well as a time of 1:59.17 for ninth all-time in the 200-yard backstroke.
The Cougars had two first-place finishes on the day. Sophomore Eden Humphrey earned the top spot in the 500-yard freestyle, and junior Adelaide Meuter finished first with a time of 55.
