GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Junior Tommaso Baravelli broke a program record as the No. 18/25 Florida State swimming and diving competed at the Florida Invitational from February 27-March 1 in Gainesville, Florida.
Select swimmers represented the Seminoles at the three-day last-chance meet against Florida at UF's O'Connell Center Natatorium, looking to improve their season-best times and qualifying marks for the NCAA Championships in March.
Baravelli swam the 200-yard breaststroke in 1:52.37 to break his own school record by 0.72 seconds. In November, he swam what was then the No. 1 time in FSU history in 1:53.09. Saturday's swim was the first time a Seminole has broken 1:53.00 in the event.
Also this weekend, fifth-year David Quirie swam the 50 freestyle in 19.88 and the 100 freestyle in 42.82.
Baravelli in the 200 breaststroke and Quirie in the 100 freestyle both improved their NCAA B qualifying marks.
Postseason competition continues with the NCAA Zone B Diving Championships from March 8-12 in Auburn, Alabama. The NCAA Championships are in Federal Way, Washington, from March 19-22 (women) and March 26-29 (men).
