WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Penn State posted season-best times in both the 200 medley and 800 free relays as the Nittany Lions began competition in the four-day Big Ten Women's Swimming & Diving Championships Wednesday evening in Boilermaker Aquatic Center on the campus of Purdue University.

After two relay events, Penn State ranks in a four-way tie for ninth place with Nebraska, Illinois and Rutgers with 74 points. Minnesota leads with 118 points and is closely followed by Michigan (114), Wisconsin (110), Indiana (108) and Ohio State (102).

The Nittany Lions' top performance came in the 800 free relay as juniors Tommie Dillione (Newtown, Pa.) and Niki Price (Manchester, Pa.) and freshmen Heather MacDougall (La Crescenta, Calif.) and Siena Salvaggio (Allentown, Pa.) earned a seventh-place finish in 7:09.40.

Megan Wujciak (Livingston, N.J.), Emily Harris (Downington, Pa.), Maddie Hart (Bryn Mawr, Pa.) and Katie Saloky (Bloomsburg, Pa.) competed in the 200 medley relay for Penn State and placed 13th in 1:41.66.
