MILWAUKEE, WIS. - Sasha Porter set the South Dakota State University women's 3-meter diving record Friday night as the Jacks faced the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and lost 161-73.

Porter's score of 213 was good enough to break the 3-meter diving record that had stood since 1982. She also finished second in the 1-meter dive, falling only four points short of setting the school record in that event.

Sophomore Alex Hoffman was the only first place finisher for the Jackrabbits as she swam a time of 2:10.63 to win her second 200 yard backstroke event of the season.

Rachel Musser set a season best mark for the Jacks in the 100 freestyle with a time of 56.43.

Kayleigh Boucher become the first SDSU swimmer this season to break the 11 minute marked in the 1,000 freestyle as she clocked in at 10:59.56. That time erased another long-standing mark in the Jackrabbit record of 10:59.92 set by Diane Kelsey in 1984.

The SDSU women (0-5 dual record) will be back in the water Saturday afternoon when they will meet the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. The meet is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. in Green Bay.
