WASHINGTON - The George Washington University men's and women's swimming & diving teams are set to resume their 2024-25 campaign this weekend, traveling to Pittsburgh to go up against Pitt and West Virginia. The meet begins Friday with the platform dive at 5:00 p.m., and continues on Saturday with the 3-meter dive at 9:00 a.m., while swimming events begin at approximately 11:30 a.m. The meet will be streamed live on ACCNX, and live results will be available on the Meet Mobile app and divemeets.com.
LAST TIME VS. PITT
GW is competing at Pittsburgh for the fourth-straight season and is coming off its first dual meet victory over the Panthers in late 2023, as the women earned a resounding 171-128 victory in their last matchup for the program's first-ever power conference victory.
ABOUT THE OPPONENTS
Pittsburgh comes into the meet with a 3-0 women's record and 1-2 men's record. Each won against Carnegie Mellon while the women's team defeated both Penn State and Georgia Tech. The men lost to those foes. Pitt last competed at the Texas Invitational in November, where it saw its women's 200-yard medley relay team submit an NCAA A-Cut to qualify for NCAAs.
West Virginia's men's and women's teams enter competition at 0-1 in dual meets after both fell to Kentucky in October. The Mountaineers hosted an invitational in November against Navy, Old Dominion, Vilanova and William & Mary. The men's team cashed in a second-place finish and the women's team finished in fourth.
A LOOK AHEAD
A busy month lies ahead for the Revolutionaries. This weekend's tri-meet is the first of three consecutive weekends of competition, and is followed by dual meets at Georgetown (Jan. 18) and a split-location dual meet against UMBC (Jan. 25-26). GW will celebrate Senior Day during the home portion of the UMBC meet on Jan. 26.
The Cavalier Invitational (Feb. 7-8) follows Senior Day and will serve as the final prep for the 2025 A-10 Championships (Feb.19-22), when GW's men will compete for their fifth-straight A-10 title and the Revolutionary women will look to make it four-straight A-10 titles.
