Salem finished sixth out of eight men's teams and 10th out of 13 women's teams.
 
Salem set a school record in the women's 200 yard medley relay at the ECAC Championships. Marta Gruszczynska, Lauren Platz, Chloe Smart and Erin Zappia posted a time of 1:55.37 to best the previous school record by two full seconds.
 
On the men's side, Brady Samuels scored points in seven events, including a pair of top 10 finishes in individual events. Samuels also combined with Mateusz Jedrzejewski, Fernando Perez and Zach Bell for a sixth-place finish out of 15 teams in the 400-yard freestyle relay.
 
In dual meets this season, both Tiger teams are 2-0 at their home pool. Salem men's team is 3-1 overall, while the Tiger women's team is 2-2.
