Swimming and Diving teanj
ready for action in Pittsburi
By Jeff Allen
THE BATTALION
The A&M swimming and
diving teams will be donning
their maroon parkas and hitting
the road this weekend for a meet
in the climate-controlled won
derland of the frozen North.
More accurately, they will be
going to Pittsburgh for a five
team invitational.
“Well, you just want to see
different competition,” said
men’s head coach MelNash.
“Last year we went to Indiana,
the year before that, or so, we
went to North Carolina. We try'
to go ahead and get exposure to
other schools and see different
people you’ll see at the national
championships; it also helps
your recruiting base to go out
and be seen in other places.”
Both teams will be facing
their first real tests in three
weeks after easily defeating the
University of Louisiana-Monroe
last week. The men (2-2) are
looking for their first big win of
the season after falling to
national powers USC and UT
earlier in the year.
“Pittsburgh is a real good,
solid team ranked 22nd or 23rd.
They usually shave down a
number (of swimmers) for this
meet,’’ Nash said. “Michigan
State is a Big 10 team and they
We try to go ahead

have lots of good swimming
there which brings another
aspect in.
“U Conn always has some
good individuals and they’ll
come in shaved down too. when
those teams shave some people
and it ends up being a pretty
good head to head match, it
gives us someone to race in
every event.”
The men will be hoping to
solidify the No. 16 national
ranking with a strong showing
in the meet. The team is trying
to hold on to a streak of Top 25
finishes dating back to the 1995
season.
For the women (4-2), this
meet will serve as a guide post
of things to come. So J
