"We had a great final home meet of the season today," head coach Nathan Owens said. "It was also senior day, so the team was excited to for them. I was impressed with Sioux Falls and their team. They had some great swims and had some really fun match ups racing their women. 
 
"The seniors had a great last night of racing at our pool including a few competitive senior relays. Our divers had an awesome day throwing some big dives. Sophomore Nat Freeman set a New School Record on1-meter six dives. Overall, in the pool we look sharp but maybe a little fatigued which is probably a good thing for the time being. Over the next few days and weeks, we'll slowly start to reduce the workload as we taper into the conference meet coming up in a little less than three weeks. Everyone is excited to be fully rested and peak for the championship."
