Swim ends 2017 with big victory over Evansville

Capping off the fall 2017 season, the Missouri State swimming and diving team leaped back into the pool on Friday, Dec. 1 facing off against Evansville University.Missouri State picked up a pair of wins against Evansville, 177-50, with the Missouri State men winning 91-22, and women winning 86-28. The meet was a pentathlon format, which head coach Dave Collins said was a little unusual. “This is a very unique format, this is something you don’t usually see in a college meet,” Collins said. “The Evansville coach actually brought up the idea, and since it this a pretty unique time for us just coming off Thanksgiving break, so we thought that this would be a great format to give a chance to race a lot.
