LEXINGTON, Ky. – The 2024 season begins for Kentucky swimming & diving this Saturday as the Wildcats travel to Columbus, Ohio. The men will dual with the Buckeyes while the women will face off with the hosts and Akron. The meet will feature 16 events with the top five finishers in each event earning points for their respective teams. The action will commence at 1 p.m. from the McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion.

Kentucky is coming off a transitional first season under Bret Lundgaard in the 2023-24 year which saw three men and two women compete at the NCAA Championships and 12 take part in the Olympic Trials ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Looking to build off these results, Kentucky returns 44 student-athletes from the 2023-24 team including fifth-years Max Berg, Torie Buerger, Sam Duncan, Bridget Engel, and Claire McDaniels. The Wildcats added seven transfers and 25 freshmen in the offseason.
