The Illinois Wesleyan University swim and dive teams are preparing for a busy weekend, competing against four different schools over two days. The events will begin in Bloomington, Illinois, and conclude in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
On Friday, January 19th, the Titans will face off against Millikin University and Illinois College at Fort Natatorium in Bloomington. The competition is set to start at 6 p.m. While IWU has not competed against these teams this year, they have previously bested both in last season's IWU Tri meet. Historically, the women's team holds a 13-0 record against Millikin's Big Blue while the men's team stands at 12-1. This marks only the second year of competition between IWU and Illinois College.
The following day, January 20th, the teams will travel to Kenosha to compete with Carthage College and Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT). At November's Carthage Classic, the Firebirds defeated both IWU teams decisively. However, Saturday's event will be the first meeting of the season between IWU and IIT's Scarlet Hawks. In past encounters with IIT, IWU women hold a perfect record of 5-0 while the men have yet to secure a victory.
Live streams for both events are available online with results posted on iwusports.com after each meet.
