The University of Evansville men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams will travel to Cleveland, Miss., this weekend to compete in the Delta State Invitational. The three-day invitational kicks off on Friday morning. This weekend marks the third and final invitational that the Aces will compete in this season.
The Aces last swam against Mid-Major powerhouse Western Kentucky on Dec. 4. Diver Sadie Wells was named Missouri Valley Conference Diver of the Week after notching first place finishes on the 1-meter and 3-meter boards. Michea Reinitz led the women swimmers, turning in two season-best times and taking top-four finishes in all three of her events. Reinitz now holds top-10 times in four MVC events. Colin Gray took the only individual first place finish for the men swimmers, posting a time of 2:16.69 in the 200-breaststroke. Diver Andy Balczo also claimed a first place score of 278.17 on the 3-meter boards.
The women now hold 17 top-three finishes in the MVC while the men are led by Alex Seward, whose 100-butterfly time of 49.96 ranks second in the Mid-American Conference and stands as the men’s only top-three time.
