Men’s Swimming

CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Vikings opened the second half of their season with a 169-129 loss against UIndy on Friday afternoon inside the Busbey Natatorium.

Head Coach Hannah Burandt said, “After nearly two months off, facing one of the top teams in NCAA Division II was a great opportunity for us as we start the championship part of our season. The most impressive thing was seeing some of the technical changes by our kids which shows the hard work they have been putting in. With a quick turnaround tomorrow, we will talk as a team about some things that need improvements and apply that in the morning. Tonight, was low key but tomorrow we will need to bring a lot more energy throughout the meet.”
