The Missouri State men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams collected 13 first-place finishes in their wins over Southern Illinois on Saturday.
In their third of five home meets this season, the men’s team dominated the Salukis 159-82 while the women touched out Southern Illinois 132-111.
Missouri State has more home meets on this year’s schedule than in past years. Typically, the seasons alternate between travel-heavy and then home-heavy. This year happens to have more meets in Springfield.
Junior Libby Howell and senior Antonio Thomas each paved the way, claiming the top spot in both the 1,000- and 500-yard freestyle events.
