• Calvillo nabbed the distance sweep after winning both the 500 and 1,000 freestyle. He accomplished this feat for the third time this season after doing so in both the long course and short course competitions against Texas and Louisville earlier in the season. His winning 1,000 free times also established a new career-best.
• Blaskovic walked away with two individual event victories for the first time during his senior campaign. He also led the winning 400 freestyle relay with a 43.76 opening split.
• The six-dive score (402.83) posted in the 3-meter dive by Gould broke the Ralph Wright Natatorium record.
• In total, 13 Hoosiers helped claim 17 event victories. Indiana tallied 12 NCAA B Cut marks in the pool and five Zone Qualifying Standard scores on the boards.
