With Fall dual meets finished, Florida swim eyeing final tournaments of season

After a disappointing performance a week ago for both the UF men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams in Athens, the No. 5 men’s squad (3-1, 2-1 Southeastern conference) came back strong this past weekend by defeating Minnesota 167-125. It was the close races that the Gators could not claim versus the Bulldogs over a week ago that led to the losses, but against the Golden Gophers, the men’s team won those close races to earn their third victory of the season. The same cannot be said for the UF women (3-2, 3-1 SEC) as they conceded those close races for the second straight meet, losing to the No. 10 ranked Minnesota women, 183-117.
