While in the 200-yard breaststroke, Pasquella clocked in at 2:25.75, another season-best time for the sophomore, while Ng jumped a spot to second place with her time of 2:30.05.
 
Dmytruk scored her win in the 100-yard butterfly, finishing first with a time of 1:01.08 to edge CWRU's Keilyn Smith by .03 seconds.
 
Elsewhere on the day, Deniz Yardimci got Rochester on the scoreboard with UR's first top-three result of the afternoon, coming in third in the 100-yard backstroke with a season-best time of 1:00.28.
 
After Pasquella earned UR's first individual win in the 100-yard breaststroke, Rachel Bachmann notched another top-three result in the 200-yard butterfly, finishing second with a time of 2:18.07.
 
The 'Jackets would add another top-three result in the 200-yard backstroke, with Leah Tang finishing third with her 2:14.41 time, another season-best, while Simone Lin finished third in the 500-yard freestyle, clocking in at 5:30.39.
 
Rochester 200-yard freestyle relay team would wrap up the dual with another second-place tally, with UR's A-relay squad of Marissa Carlson, Jessica Spahn, Alicia Albuquerque and Tang touching the wall in 1:41.68.
 
Overall, UR tallied a trio of first-place results to go along with two second-place tallies and four third-place finishes.
