"Today was an outstanding team effort," head coach
Jen Buffin said. "With it being a relay-focused meet, everyone had a chance to contribute, and the mixed relays created some exciting, close races that you don't often see in college swimming. It really brought our teams together and sparked great internal competition. It's rare that our men and women get to race side by side, and they embraced the opportunity. We got the job done and had a lot of fun doing it. We also had a great day on the boards with Nico earning his first-ever regional qualifying score. Now we turn our focus to the CC Classic."
The Tigers return to action by hosting the 27th annual CC Classic next weekend, Jan. 16-18, at Schlessman Natatorium.
