A small squad of Case Western Reserve University swimmers finished competition on Saturday at the two-day Midwest Invitational, hosted by the University of Chicago in Chicago, Illinois.

Junior Suhan Mestha claimed the title in the 50-yard freestyle with a NCAA 'B' cut time of 23.56, while freshman Caitlyn VonFeldt added a fifth-place finish in the event with a time of 24.64. Mestha and Vonfeldt also teamed with senior Inez Moore and junior Alli Drohosky in the 200-yard medley relay to finish first in the event with a NCAA 'B' cut and new school-record time of 1:45.07. That time bests the previous school-record of 1:46.06 set at the 2017 Wooster Invitational.

Freshman Olivia Love also gathered two top-five finishers during the invite, placing second in the 100-yard backstroke (1:00.52) and fifth in the 200-yard backstroke (2:13.22). Junior Renee Decker also added a fifth-place finish in the 100-yard freestyle (55.33), while junior Karine Zeidan finished fifth in the 1,650-yard freestyle (18:55.95).
