Carbondale, Ill. -
The Southern Illinois University Carbondale men's and women's swimming and diving team will return to Springfield, Mo., Saturday to compete in the Missouri Valley Conference Shootout. Each of the Valley schools will only send eleven swimmers and no divers to this event.
The men's team beat Drury College, the defending NCAA Division I-AA national champions, and the women's team was edged by Drury for the second year in a row by only two points last weekend in the same town but in a different pool.
This year's event will be a shoot-out meet different from last year's relay only affair. Each team will enter two swimmers in each of the eleven events, the No. 1 swimmers in one heat and the No. 2's in another heat and the two times are combined to see who wins.
