The 200 medley relay team of Don Brazelton, William Smith, Alexander Barnes, and Sidrell Williams also set a new school record, posting a 1:32.33 time, breaking the previous mark by a second and a half.
 
The other 200 medley relay team featuring Devin Guardino, Maalik Nixon, Farion Cooper, and Kegan Ford had the fourth-fastest time in school history, recording a 1:34.67 mark.
