PULLMAN, Wash. (October 13, 2023) – Washington State Swimming recorded six wins including three from freshman Madison Parker as the Cougars battled No. 23 UCLA at Gibb Pool Friday evening.
 
WSU dropped a 153-109 decision to the Bruins while Parker led all swimmers with 27 points after posting wins in the 200 free, 50 free and 100 free. Fellow freshman Mira Szimcsak claimed the 500 free and finished second in the 1000 free, posting the eighth-fastest time in WSU history.
 
Sophomore Anna Rauchholz delivered with a big win in the 100 back, sophomore Emily Lundgren finished second in the 100 and 200 breast while senior Kiana Swain was second in the 200 back.
