Spartanburg S.C.- On Friday the 5th Converse hosted Day One of the Trimeet with Lenoir- Rhyne and Wheeling. The Men's team won against Wheeling and the Women's team won against Wheeling and Lenoir-Rhyne.

With a Trimeet it gets scored as a double-dual meet, meaning that all three teams compete in the event, then the results are pulled into the system and scored as separate meets as if the teams were competing head to head. So the results of a single event are scored like a normal dual meet (9/4/3/2/1 points by place with a max of three scorers per team) in three separate and simultaneous meets: Converse swimmers vs. Lenoir-Rhyne swimmers, Converse vs. Wheeling, and Lenoir-Rhyne vs. Wheeling. So teams will either go 2-0, 1-1, or 0-2 in a single day, as each is treated as a separate meet in the record book.

Coach Logan Simpson had this to say "I'm so proud of the men's team and the work they've put in to get the first win in program history. Coming off the Christmas break, it can be hard to jump back into racing, but the men and women both came back locked in and ready to go.

Lenoir-Rhyne beat us by 94 points a year ago, so that one was a big win for our women's team. I'm proud of how hard they've worked and their commitment to maximizing their full potential as a team. Big things are coming for both of our teams!"
