ASHEVILLE, N.C. – Georgia Southern swim and dive impressed in their first meet in over three weeks. The Eagles scored 92 points total, throughout the two days, as well as winning the diving portion of the two-day meet.
 
"Really proud of how our women competed this weekend," Head coach Amanda Caldwell said. "Our divers got us off to a good start, especially in their second round of 1m. I loved the not back down attitude they put out there. The late October through mid-January grind of the season is here and our swimmers got out of their comfort zones to give their best effort in each race."
