Senior Louise Hansson won the 200y IM for the second time in two years, collecting her sixth career conference crown to highlight the Trojans' efforts Thursday at the 2020 Pac-12 Women's Swimming and Diving Championships in Federal Way, Wash.
USC is third after the first full night with 397 points. Stanford is in first (504) followed by California (437), USC, UCLA (364), Arizona State (338), Arizona (291), Utah (192) and Washington State (161).
Hansson, the three-time defending champion in the 100y fly who will go for four in a row on Friday, won USC's sixth Pac-12 200y IM title. The only Trojan faster in the race is USC great, Katinka Hosszu, who claimed back-to-back titles in the event in 2011 and 2012. She holds the school record at 1:51.80.
Hansson, who posted a 1:54.09, won the final by 0.58 seconds with Cal's Izzy Ivey second (1:54.67).
Senior Tatum Wade clocked a personal best 1:56.19 to finish fifth in the A final.
Freshman Nicole Pavlopoulou took fourth in the 200y IM consolation final with a 1:58.86. Sophomore Isa Odgers finished fifth in the heat with a 1:58.97. Freshman Aela Janvier was fifth in the bonus final with a 2:00.55.
Junior Marta Ciesla repeated as an A finalist in the 50 free and placed a career best second in 21.86, 0.22 seconds faster than her prelims time. Junior Jemma Schlicht (22.45) finished 12th and 4th, respectively, in the B final.
USC's 200y free relay (Ciesla, Laticia Transom, Schlicht, Wade), posted a third place finish in 1:28.44, 0.12 seconds behind Stanford.
For the first time in over a decade, USC had two divers advance to finals in the women's 1-meter springboard competition.

Senior Naomi Gowlett improved from last year's performance, qualifying for finals and taking seventh in the 1-meter competition with 298.65.
