In the other freestyle event, the 100 free, Boswell, freshman Wen Zhang, and McAnany were the top three finishers. The final 1-2-3 placement came in the 100 breast, as Nelson, freshman Tory Bartlett, and senior Andrew Weiss were the top placers.

In the final swimming event of the day, the 200 free relay, Zhang, Boswell, Orr, and Shepard were the top placers for the Falcons, taking home the sixth gold of the day. Finally on the diving board, junior Cole Armagost once again paced the Falcons with a second place finish in both the 1 and 3-meter events.
