ODESSA, TX – The Falcons amazing season has been capped off with several All RMAC Conference Team Awards.
 
Head Coach Betsy Graham said she hoped for this when UT Permian Basin moved to the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference.
 
"Moving into a more competitive conference made us better in the pool going against stronger swimmers and more competitive divers," said Graham. "Coach Mangum has done an amazing job with all her divers. I am very proud of this year's team and I am excited about the future of UTPB Swimming."
 
All American and All American Honorable Mention winners Cater Wood and Matthew Lenzo secured spots on the First Team All-Conference Squad.
 
"Mathew and Carter have had a stellar year," said Graham. "They dove phenomenally in finals every night at conference and we are proud of them. Kathe and Delaney dove well. They have had a great year."
