From Head Coach Bruce Zimmerman
"What a meet! The men's meet was a hard fought competition and the men's team was strong throughout. In most events the men dominated the Findlay swimmers and divers. The women's meet was a nail biter that went down to the very end with either team in a position to come out on top. At the first diving break the SVSU women were in a pretty deep hole. The team showed some amazing character and grit and clawed their way back into contention event by event to ultimately pull out a 6 point win against the 20th ranked Division II women's team in the country. I could not be more proud of the way the entire team faced a tough team in a highly competitive meet. It was a great way to begin the tougher portion of our fall meet schedule!"
Up Next...
Saginaw Valley returns to the pool on Saturday (Nov. 3) when they travel to Marquette, Michigan to face a pair of tough GLIAC programs in Northern Michigan and Grand Valley State. The meet is slated to begin at 12:30 p.m.
