BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The good times continued to roll for the Millsaps men's and women's swimming and diving programs as Bryan Sullivan made history on Day Three of the 2022 SAA Swimming and Diving Championships on Friday. Sullivan won the first conference title for either program and advanced to two more Saturday finals. Additionally, the women's team set three school records inside the CrossPlex.

Entering with the top-ranked time in the 50-yard freestyle, the Flowood, Miss., native did not disappoint en route to winning the finals in 20.77 seconds.

The Jackson Prep product also posted the top times in the 100 fly (48.99) and 100 backstroke (49.66) preliminary heats on Friday. The 49.66 in the backstroke was a conference meet record. He will look to claim two more conference crowns Saturday morning.

The Millsaps swimming and diving programs are currently in their third season and have been setting records across the board in 2021-22.

On the women's side, Chloee Beebe, Kat Burns, Chelsea Bould and Catherine Passarelli teamed up for a new top Millsaps mark in the 200-yard freestyle relay. The quartet finished in 1:46.91, bettering the previous time by four seconds.

Individually, Ginny Ray Clevenger had a terrific day in setting two more records of her own. Hailing from Ocean Springs, Miss., she etched her name in the Millsaps record book in both the 400 IM (4:55.75) and 100 backstroke (1:05.51). Her time in the 400 IM was good enough for 10th place overall and she earned a spot in Saturday's B-Final.

Other swimmers to advance to the B-Finals included Kat Burns (1:11.20) and Anthony Werner (1:02.34), who both finished 12th in the 100-yard breaststroke. Additionally, Breydon Conner ended the day in 13th in the 100 backstroke (59.05).

Weather has forced all sessions to be moved back, with Friday's finals now scheduled for a 10 a.m. Saturday start. Saturday preliminaries will now begin at 6 p.m. Updated schedule, results, live video and meet info can be found at gomajors.com.
