Three Pepperdine divers and 27 swimmers opened their season Thursday afternoon with a quick dual meet against the San Diego State University Aztecs.

San Diego State was ranked No.15 in the nation by collegeswimming.com and despite several solid performances by the Waves, the Aztecs won the meet 71-53.

“Our girls came out ready to race,” Swim and Dive Head Coach Joe Spahn said. “They went toe to toe with some very talented swimmers.”

The meet was the Waves’ first under Spahn, who formerly coached at the University of Notre Dame.
