Quote from Coach Diego Santos
"Today's efforts show that the hard work is paying off, however, the best thing about it is that there is still plenty of room to improve and continue getting better. It's a long season so, while these days are worth celebrating, we need to keep grinding and not take it for granted."

Tim Stollings was must-see on Friday night as he brought his best to the pool. The Prichard, W.V. native was an individual winner in both the 100 backstroke and the 100 butterfly and also took first as a member of the 200 medley relay team. Stollings' performance in the 100 backstroke was one for the ages, cruising to a time of 46.18 which set a new program record and is an automatic qualifier for the 2024 NCAA DII National Championship. Beyond that, his swim, which saw splits of 22.03 and 24.15, is the second-fastest time in the country this season and is the second-fastest non-NCAA Championship swim in the history of Division II and eighth-fastest overall.
