Missouri coach Greg Rhodenbaugh thought his swim and dive team competed exceptionally well at the SEC Championship held in Columbia this week — even though it was unshaved and untapered. Heading into the NCAA Championships, Rhodenbaugh could not be more excited to see what else the athletes can accomplish.
“Being able to compete like we did, in about every race, is a pretty neat thing for people who are unshaved and unrested,” Rhodenbaugh said. “Although I thought we’d be pretty good, I didn’t know we’d be this good.”
The Missouri men’s team wrapped up the championships with 902 points and in fifth place, matching the best-ever SEC finish for the men’s program.
