"It is always interesting during the last week of the classes to see where they are at mentally. Before the meet started, we asked for 100-minutes of focus. We were hit and miss. Very pleased with how the ladies performed. The men need to be able to concentrate more as the season progresses," said Head Coach Paul Graham following the meet. 

Five Viking swimmers will be back in the pool at the USA Winter National Championship. Madisen Tretter, Phillip Brittain, Philipp Sikatzki, Gage Alleman, and Adam Ingledew will travel to Greenville, North Carolina from Thursday-Saturday (Dec. 4-6). This is an all day event throughout the three days.
