PROVO, Utah –The men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams will compete against UNLV on Saturday at 1 p.m. MDT at the Buchanan Natatorium.

“UNLV just beat Denver last weekend,” head coach John Brooks said. “They have a great guy’s and girl’s team and we’re going to look to battle it out down in the desert against them this weekend.”

Last season the teams split the dual meet with the Rebels with the men’s team losing 176-118 while the women’s team won 186-114. The women’s team has enjoyed some recent success against UNLV, with its last loss coming in 2004. The men’s team last beat UNLV in 2007 when they won 185-114 in Provo.
