Swimming & Diving Kicks Off Season at Virginia Tech

DURHAM, N.C. – The Duke swimming and diving teams are set to kick off the 2018-19 campaign on the road, opening the year with an ACC dual meet at Virginia Tech Saturday. The Blue Devils and the Hokies square off beginning at 11 a.m. at the Christiansburg Aquatic Center.

The men’s and women’s teams from Florida State were also slated to take part in Saturday’s action, but were unable to travel due to inclement weather from Hurricane Michael.
