Junior swimmer Kelsey Vehr is not done with her season yet. After winning three individual titles at the women's swimming and diving MAC meet, Vehr is headed to Purdue University to swim in the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships on March 17th. Vehr is swimming in the 100-yard and 200-yard breaststroke events.

Vehr's lifetime best in the 100-yard breaststroke is 1:00.62, the 16th fastest time in the nation. The fastest time nationally in the event was clocked in by Ashley Danner of George Mason University earlier this year. Her time of 59.06 is only :01.61 seconds ahead of Vehr's fastest time. In the 200-yard breaststroke, Vehr is ranked 24th nationally, with a time of 2:11.70, less than four seconds behind the NCAA leader. The meet starts on March 18th, and runs through the 20th.
