FEDERAL WAY, Wash.-- Washington freshman Kim Jasmer, UW's only competitor Thursday at the Spring Championships, fell just shy of her lifetime best in the 200 meter freestyle, placing eighth with a time of 2:04.03. The time converted to short course yards is 1:48.75 and is just slower than her time of 1:48.36 posted at the Pac-10 Championships in February.

The Huskies continue action Friday in five events, including the 100 meter backstroke, 400 meter freestyle, 100 meter breaststroke, 100 meter butterfly and 400 meter freestyle relay.
