MEET PREVIEW

On the women’s side, UVA was dominant in winning the school’s first-ever women’s NCAA swimming & diving title last season, while Texas took third, just nine points back of runner-up NC State.

Cavaliers’ Alex Walsh (women’s 200 IM) and Kate Douglass (women’s 50 free) won individual national titles in 2021 and followed up by winning silver and bronze, respectively, in the women’s 200 IM at the Olympic Games for the United States.

Virginia also has freshman sensation Gretchen Walsh, who has been off to an incredibly hot start this season, leading the nation in the women’s 100 freestyle and ranking second to Michigan’s Maggie MacNeil in the 50 free and 100 backstroke.

Texas’ roster includes freshman Erica Sullivan, who won an Olympic medal of her own this past summer with a silver behind American teammate Katie Ledecky in the inaugural Olympic women’s 1500 freestyle.

The Texas men roared to the NCAA title last season with a record-setting 595-point total. The Longhorns have returned their top 10 scorers from last season’s NCAAs, including 1-meter diving champion Jordan Windle, plus they’ve brought in a strong recruiting class that includes top-10 ranked freshmen Anthony GrimmTim Connery and Luke Hobson.

The Virginia men were ninth at NCAAs last season and have revamped by bringing in Alabama transfer Matt King and #3 recruit Jack Aikins.

So dual meet scoring is 9,4,3,2,1,0 for individual max 3 per team?
Which would mean both Texas men and women both up 32-6 after diving?
I’m used to highschool scoring.

I’m not seeing diving results yet, but, yes, that’s normally how dual meet results are scored.

Just here to say that the ACC Network is absolute garbage. Not available on any app or channel – paid or not – on the West Coast.

I think the Cavs vs and/or Michigan-Wolfpack would be the meet of the season for the women’s team!
