BYU swimmers to compete in Texas, Colorado Mesa Invitationals

PROVO, Utah – A group of swimmers from the men’s and women’s swim team will compete in the Texas Invite Dec. 4-6. Another group will be in Grand Junction, Colorado, competing in the Colorado Mesa Invite.

“We’re expecting season-best, if not lifetime-best times from a few of our swimmers,” head coach John Brooks said. “They’re prepared and rested for the meet. We want as many people swimming at night, and we want people to place high enough to hold their spot to qualify for NCAA’s from this meet. I’m really excited to see how well we do, because they’ve put in a lot of work.”
