CLEVELAND, Ohio — Akron delivered a dominant showing Friday at the Magnus Cup Invitational, stacking up relay wins and individual titles to highlight the second day of competition.

Akron stayed in first place after finishing the second day with 1,031 points. Northern Colorado placed second with 788 points while Bowling Green rounded out the top three with 699 points.

The Zips opened the evening with a statement victory in the women's 200-yard medley relay, as Felicia Klintemar, Claire Cox, Callie Parkes and Ada Szwabinska touched first in 1:39.36, topping Northern Colorado and Bowling Green.

Klintemar carried that momentum into the 100 butterfly, winning the event in 52.95. Akron placed four swimmers in the A final, with Parkes finishing fourth, Addy Soehnlen fifth and Avery Knight seventh. Hannah Trainer added a 10th-place finish.

Akron's depth continued to show in the B and C finals, where Maggie Patterson (11th) and Szwabinska (12th) led the second heat and Ava Withey added a 20th-place finish.

In the 400 IM, Patterson returned to take third in 4:25.34, while Madelyn Bosler placed fifth. Carrie Caniglia (13th), Cora Spetz (16th) and Brienne Trumpower (38th) contributed additional points in later heats, and Soehnlen picked up another top-32 finish in the D final.

Akron closed the night with another top performance as Helena Lalkovic won the 200 freestyle in 1:49.04, edging Northern Colorado's Kyra Rabess.

The Zips saw Sophia Stamm lead the way in the 3-meter dive with a 6th place finish and a score 250.20 points. Paige Bush placed 10th with a score of 234.40.

Through two days, Akron's mix of top-end speed and depth across all finals positioned the Zips among the strongest programs in the field as the meet moves into its final day.
