When the Western swimming and diving teams take on Butler at 1 p.m. Saturday, senior Stacey Schortgen will not be swimming her best event – the 1,000-yard freestyle. In the opening meet victory over Delta State, Schortgen swam a personal best time (10:25.40) in the event and was three seconds off the school record.

When the Western men’s (4-0) and women’s (4-0) swimming and diving teams travel to Atlanta for the Georgia Tech Invitational Friday, they will be competing against five other schools, including top-25 teams like Georgia Tech and Florida State. The other schools competing are Miami, Rice and Florida Atlantic.

Great spirit. Be classy winners. Undefeated season. These are a few of the goals listed on a red poster in the Preston Center locker room of the Lady Topper swimming and diving team. Not to be overlooked, the phrase “Be a good student athlete” also appears on the list.

The Hilltopper and Lady Topper swim teams added two more wins to their record, defeating Xavier on Friday and Cincinnati on Saturday. The men’s team (4-0) beat Xavier 54-41 and the women’s team (4-0) won 55-39. Both the men and women’s 200-yard medley relay teams broke Xavier pool records.
