SALT LAKE CITY- Both the Utah men's and women's swimming and diving teams earned victories this afternoon over UNLV. The men won their meet by a score of 189.5-104.5 and the women were also victorious, 179-120.
"I feel pretty good," said Utah head coach Joe Dykstra. "I loved the energy and the enthusiasm as well as the effort. I know we are putting our best effort out there, which is great. You can also tell we are very tired form training at this time of year. We are deep in the water. We have two weeks until the Texas A&M invite so we will start to back them off in this next week or so."
