NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Vanderbilt swim team (4-4) hits the road this weekend for the first time this semester, traveling to Fayetteville, Ark. for a quad meet between the Razorbacks, Clemson Tigers and Houston Cougars.
The Dores come off a 165-97 loss to South Carolina. Taking 15 podium finishes last Saturday, the Commodores are excited for their first SEC road test.
Vandy looks to take this conference matchup in Fayetteville, as it would be the squad’s first SEC win of the season. However, as diving events are in the schedule, the Commodores’ will need to keep bringing in the same powerful swims that downed Oregon State, Campbell, NC A&T and Little Rock.
The Razorbacks head into this weekend’s action nearly undefeated, with conference wins over Kentucky and Tennessee. The Razorback’s sole loss of the season came from No. 9 Auburn, 142-95.
Houston enters this weekend 0-2 in meets, with losses coming from SMU and North Texas. The Clemson Tigers will only be competing in diving events on both Friday and Saturday.
