INDIANAPOLIS – The first of UIndy's winter-sport seasons kicks off this evening when the Greyhound swimming & diving teams travel to across town for a season-opening dual versus Division I IUPUI. The meet will be held at the world-class IU Natatorium in downtown Indianapolis and is set to start at 6 p.m. ET.
Â
The Hounds are coming off an historic season, particularly on the men's side. The guys captured the program's first-ever conference title at the 2018 GLVC Championships and went on to set a school record with a third-place finish at the Nationals.
Â
The women, meanwhile, were runners-up at the conference meet and placed 23rd at the NCAA Championships, with both finishes good for their best since 2013. Together, the two sides combined for 44 All-America First Team or Honorable Mention nods, with the vast majority of those individuals returning this season.
