The junior joined Peighton Gilbert, Makenna Bottorff and Alexa McDonald to set a new Cardinal record with their time of 1 minute, 33.05 seconds, besting the 2014 record by 0.44 seconds. The quartet was seventh, with the host Zips taking the top spot with a meet-record 1:28.54.

Vormohr also anchored the 800 freestyle relay, which included cousin Sophie Bader, that finished seventh in 7:32.38, and the 400 freestyle relay that was also seventh in 3:25.32.

Individually, her 56.49 seconds was the seventh-best time in program history in the 100 backstroke as she placed 18th. She also set a career-best in the 200 backstroke, finishing 18th as well in 2:02.56. Vormohr was 27th in the 50 freestyle.

The Cardinals totaled 148 points for last out of eight teams, with host Akron taking the championship with 867 points.
