UTPB men's and women's swimming each won nine events against Southwestern in the final warm up  before next months Pacific Collegiate Swimming Conference Championships.

"Today was one of the most complete meets we've had all season," UTPB swim coach Cameron Kainer said. "Both the men and women swam incredibly and I couldn't be more proud of their efforts. The score of the meet wasn't indicative of the type of meet we swam. We came in and took as many points as we could while earning some great times."
