THIS WEEK:
Utah will travel to UC San Diego for a dual meet on Saturday, Oct. 28. The meet will begin at noon pacific time and will be held at the Canyonview Pool in La Jolla, Calif. Both the men's and women's teams will be competing, each having opened with a victory against Denver on Oct. 21.
UTE NOTES:
The Ute women dominated Denver 176.5-104.5 at home to start the season at 1-0. In the meet Kelsey Patterson won both diving events, while Alison McInturff won the 100 free and 400 free relay. Adrienne Coburn and Amber Walter won two and three events respectively in the victory.
Utah was also dominant on the men's side, tallying a 188-95 victory, moving to 1-0 on the season. In the meet David Maasberg and Andrew Cole were both three-event winners, while Adam Oliver won two.
WHAT TO WATCH FOR:
UC San Diego - On the women's side, UC San Diego has finished third nationally in Division II for the past three years. The Tritons boast Andrea Lippin in the distance events, she holds the school record in both the 500 free and 1000 free. Also Susan Bell returns for UC San Diego, she holds the school record in the 50 backstroke.
The Triton men have finished in the national top five the last three seasons. They will be led by Joel Tourtellotte in the freestyle events, and expect a boost from senior Tim Fuller in the 50 and 100 free.
LAST MEETING WITH UC SAN DIEGO:
These two squads met last season, where Utah beat UC San Diego, winning 13 of 16 events on the women's side to win 180-116. The Ute men won 12 of 16 events going on to win by a score of 160.5-138.5. In the meet Amber Walter won three-events for the women, while Jeremy Clark won two events for the men.
QUOTING HEAD COACH Michael Litzinger:
"It is always great for us to travel to San Diego. Although UC San Diego is an NCAA Division II team, they are one of the best in the country. Their athletes swim hard, and are well trained. I expect the dual meet to be as competitive as this past weekend versus Denver was."
