Anderson Releases 2020-21 Swimming & Diving Schedule

Anderson University released its swimming and diving schedule for the 2020-21 season on Tuesday.

The swimming and diving schedule is subject to change based on developments in the COVID-19 pandemic.

Anderson is scheduled to compete in five meets, including the three-day Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference (HCAC) Championships. The Ravens battle Hanover College at home on Jan. 16 at 2 p.m. to kick off the season. Anderson then competes at Bethel University (Ind.) on Jan. 23 in Elkhart. Anderson also hosts Manchester University for Senior Night on Jan. 30, followed by Transylvania University on Feb. 6. The Ravens compete in the three-day conference meet, beginning on March 4 in Terre Haute.

Last month, The Council of Presidents determined that the HCAC will not allow spectators (on or off campus) for any HCAC-hosted athletics events until at least Feb. 15 and will be reevaluated at that time.

Anderson's swimming and diving team put together historic seasons last year on both the men and women's side. The men finished a program-best third place in the HCAC Championships, while the women tied for a program best with its third-place finish. In duals, the women went 7-3 while the men put together a 5-6 record, both teams setting school wins records in the process. Halle Strege also became the first person in program history for men and women to win an individual conference title and hit an NCAA 'B' Qualifying Standard.
