THIS WEEK:
The University of Utah swimming and diving teams travel to Denver, Colo., to take on the University of Denver Pioneers on Thursday-Friday, Nov. 3-4. The meet starts at 5 p.m. on Thursday, and noon on Friday. Both Utah teams are 1-0 on the season after defeating UC San Diego over the weekend.
QUOTING HEAD COACH Michael Litzinger:
"Denver is a rapidly improving squad and will be ready for us. It was good to be in a truly competitive environment last weekend. UCSD raced us well, and our athletes responded. Some of our times were impressive, but we have a lot of work to do as it is a short week ahead of us."
