Irish Welcome Ohio State For Dual Meet

Nov. 20, 2008

NOTRE DAME, Ind. – The Notre Dame men’s swimming team is set to host Ohio State at the Rolfs Aquatic Center on Friday. The dual meet will serve as the final tune-up before Notre Dame returns the favor to the Buckeyes by traveling to Columbus, Ohio, for the Ohio State Invitational in December.

Live stats will be available for the meet on UND.com. For up-to-the-minute results, sign up for IRISH ALERT text messaging services at UND.com.

Notre Dame is 3-2 in dual meets this season with Ohio State carrying a 3-0 record and a national ranking of 11th.

“Ohio State may be the fastest team to visit Notre Dame this season,” Irish head coach Tim Welsh said. “They swim very well in dual meets, and we are expecting this to be one of our toughest this season. Hopefully this will bring out fast swims on our end as well.”
