VALPARAISO, Ind. – Strong efforts by both the men and the women's squads earned swimming and diving a pair of wins tonight over Valparaiso.

"I am very excited about the wins tonight, especially after the last few weeks of hard training," head coach Rickey Perkins said. "We had some great swims. It was great to compete against someone else besides ourselves."
