The fun open meet, one of three each year boosting club finances, gave lots of swimmers the opportunity to race, allowing younger swimmers to watch the more experienced swimmers race as they prepare for more big competitions this summer.
Head coach Matt Heathcock said: "We are starting to see the new structure and training environment come together.
"We will have a long way to go, but the change in less than three years has been great to watch and be a part of."

Borussia Dortmund and Wolves in talks over Fabio Silva transfer
Borussia Dortmund are in talks with Wolverhampton Wanderers over the proposed permanent transfer of forward Fabio Silva. Negotiations between the clubs are ongoing, with Wolves aiming to secure a fee in the region of €20million to €25m (£17.4m to £21.7m at current rates) for their former record signing. Advertisement Silva, 23, joined Wolves from Porto in a £35m move in 2020 but he has spent the last three seasons out on loan at Anderlecht, PSV, Rangers and Las Palmas. Dortmund have been looking to bring in attacking reinforcements this summer, and with Sebastien Haller likely to leave the club during the window, they are seeking to provide further competition for striker Serhou Guirassy. Silva scored five goals and provided six assists in 72 appearances across all competitions for Wolves. He spent last summer training away from the first team after falling out of favour, before securing a loan move to Spanish side Las Palmas. The forward scored 10 goals and provided three assists in 24 La Liga appearances, and made his senior Portugal debut in November. His Wolves contract is set to expire in the summer of 2026. Silva would become the latest Wolves departure this summer, with Matheus Cunha, Rayan Ait-Nouri, Goncalo Guedes, Nelson Semedo and Pablo Sarabia are among those players to have exited Molineux in this window. Wolves have brought in Fer Lopez, Jhon Arias and David Moller Wolfe, while Jorgen Strand Larsen's loan move from Celta Vigo has been made permanent.
