2023 NCAA Division II Championships Day 2 records and updates

The 2023 NCAA Division II Championships started on March 7, 2023 in Indianapolis and the meet has continued through Wednesday, March 8, 2023. Day 1 consisted of the men's 800-yard freestyle relay and the women's 800-yard freestyle relay events.

Nova Southeastern finished first in the women's 800-yard freestyle relay with a time of 7:13.65. Team Drury and Wester Chester finished in second and third place with a time of 7:14.86 and 7:17.11, respectively.

As far as the men's 800-yard freestyle relay is concerned, McKendree claimed first place with a time of 6:22.46 followed by Tampa and Grand Valley in second and third place, respectively. With only two events on Day 1, several events were held on Day 2.

No individual champions from 2022 defended their title on Day 2 of the NCAA Division II Championships. Queens University of Charlotte have dominated the top for seven consecutive years and are now in the middle of a transition to Division I, hence there will be new champions this year.

In the women's 1000-yard freestyle, Nova Southeastern's Emily Trieschmann finished first with a time of 9:43.25. She was already a national record holder in the 1000-yard freestyle at the NCAA Division II. But Emily broke her own record, which she set last month. The previous record was 9:43.69.

Emily Trieschmann was already leading her opponents by almost one second after 50 yards. Jordan Fox finished second, followed by Kate Agger in third place. In the women's 50-yard freestyle finals, Johanna Buys set a new division II national and meet record by clocking a time of 22.10.
