Ospreys Break Another Two School Records
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - North Florida women's swimming saw continued success on day two of the 2025 Atlantic Sun Swimming & Diving Championships as another two school records were broken and six more top-ten program times were set on Thursday.Â
The duo of Kayla Daley and Riley McCormick had excellent performances in the 100-yard butterfly, tallying three top-ten program times between the prelims and finals.Â
The group of Victoria Torres, Abby Noga, Marcia Shaw and Ashley Kephart kicked off the evening finals by breaking the school record for the 200-yard freestyle relay with a combined time of 1:33.30. The previous record was set by Kephart, Shaw, Torres and former teammate Ashley Cozad back at the 2024 ASUN Championships.Â
To conclude the finals, the group of Katie Carlos, Ashley Kirby, Daley and Torres broke the school record for the 400-yard medley relay, finishing in 3:45.54. The previous record was set by Reeves Showfety, Torres, Daley and Kephart back at the Gamecock Invite in November.Â

COFFEY TALK
"The second day of the ASUN Championships brought even more success for our program. In the morning, we posted a few top-ten times in program history in both the 100 butterfly and 400 IM, as well as many personal bests. During the evening finals, we started and ended with two school records in the 200 freestyle and 400 medley relays. We are performing at our peak and are only halfway done with the meet. The competition has been very fast and we are meeting the challenge." —- head coach Ian CoffeyÂ
