Olympic Trials
Cleveland State had a pair of athletes swim in the U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Omaha, Nebraska this summer. Griffin Manning swam the 100 LC meter breaststroke, while Jackson Nester took part in the 200 LC meter backstroke.

Tickets
Each session will be ticketed individually. Adults are $8/session and youth/senior is $6. All-session passes can be bought for $40/adult and $30/youth/senior. You can buy tickets online by clicking here, calling the ticket office (216) 687-4848, or at the door.

Donation Drive
Our team has partnered with Socks and Clothes for Kids of Cleveland. Donations allow kids to be better prepared for school and everything else that life can bring. New clothing or school supplies can aid those that don't have the resources to get them. The most requested donation items are school supplies and clothing like socks and underwear. Everything must be new, and they are in need of more adult sizes. Our drive will be collecting item donations and financial donations, so there is no need to go shopping! For more information about the organization go to sc4k.org. Donations will be accepted throughout the entirety of Magnus. The donation bins will be set up by the entrance of the natatorium.

Up Next
The Vikings return to the pool for a two-day dual at UIC along with IUPUI on Friday, Jan. 7, and Saturday, Jan. 8.
